Attitudes of Medical Students towards Medical Profession: Comparison of Pre-Clinical and Clinical Education Periods

Öz

Background:

Attitude is said to be “a state of spiritual readiness that has a direct or dynamic effect on the individual's behavior towards all objects and situations to which he or she is concerned”. Attitude is said to be an effective element in guiding the behavior of individuals and in their success. New knowledge and experiences change attitudes. It is important to measure the attitudes and make the necessary changes in order to change student behaviors in a positive way and increase their success. The aim of this study is to determine the attitudes of the medical students towards the medical profession and whether there is a difference between the preclinical and clinical periods.

Methods: 

In this cross-sectional study the "Attitude Scale for the Medical Profession (MPAS)", a valid and reliable scale developed by Bati et al., was applied to undergraduate students studying in in a medical school during the 2017-2018 academic year. Descriptive statistics, Mann Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis tests were used. 

Results: 

The overall participation rate was 64.31% (n = 564). The median value of the scale was 93. The total score of the scale did not differ between classes. Likewise, sub-dimensions of the scale that are “willingness, help and commitment to the profession” did not show statistically significant difference between the classes. 48.8% (n = 275) of the study group consisted of students in preclinical period. When the scale total scores of the preclinical and clinical groups were compared, no statistically significant difference was observed between the two groups. In the comparison of the sub-dimensions of the scale, no statistically significant difference was found between the attitudes of both groups.

Conclusion:

Concerning the attitudes of medical students towards the medical profession, there were no differences across the preclinical and clinical phases.
