Popis: | A 35-item questionnaire, designed to assess the relative importance of various factors to medical students when ranking physical medicine and rehabilitation (PMR) residency training programs during the Match, was sent to all members of the 1991 senior class after Match Day. This mailing was coordinated with the National Resident Matching Program. The questionnaire was also sent to all PMR residency training program directors and all physiatrist faculty members at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey--New Jersey Medical School (UMDNJ-NJMS). Recipients were asked to grade selection factors based on a numerical scale: 1, extremely important; 2, very important; 3, important; 4, minimally important; 5, not important. A response rate of 41% (73/179) for medical students, 87% (62/71) for residency training directors and 71% (22/31) for UMDNJ-NJMS faculty members was attained. Analysis of the results indicates that, overall, there is no significant difference in ranking of the factors by each of the three groups surveyed. The intergroup responses for one-third of the factors were significantly different. Diversity of the training experience, current house officer satisfaction, it "feels" right and house officer quality were the four most important selection factors to the medical students. |
