摘要:

An institutional strategy has been developed that permits consideration of sociomedical issues in some depths throughout the undergraduate curriculum. A major component of the strategy is the appointment by the dean of multidisciplinary education committees, each concerned with one sociomedical problem area. Eight such committees have been appointed, and each has developed a small group seminar course in its area. In the freshman year, each student is required to choose one of these seminars, or “selectives,” and to participate in it for two semesters. Analysis of grades in the required basic science courses has demonstrated that participation in the selectives has no adverse effect on student performance in the other courses. These and other activities of the education committees have brought about changes elsewhere in the educational program.

摘要:

This paper examines the curricular response of colleges and universities to conflict among scientific and medical experts regarding the application of professional knowledge and technical expertise to public policy and patient care. Two types of interdisciplinary science programs now exist on many campuses: those that attempt to increase the “scientific literacy” of humanities and social science students and those that try to enrich the “social consciousness” of physical and life science students. An alternative philosophy of education is proposed that is based on three objectives: to introduce the logical processes for establishing causes in the health sciences; to identify limits of scientific and technical knowledge in health-related areas; and to develop familiarity with problems of decision-making under conditions of scientific or clinical uncertainty. Illustrative cases in clinical medicine and public health suggest how to apply this educational philosophy. The paper concludes by observing that premedical education reform is impossible without redefining the “liberal arts” tradition of undergraduate education.

摘要:

The nature and direction of changes in empathy as measured by Hogan's empathy scale was explored over time (1975, 1976, and 1979) for medical students in the class of 1979 at the Bowman Gray School of Medicine. Results indicated that empathy scores declined slightly over time, correlated negatively with Medical College Admission Test scores, and were unrelated to academic performance or performance on Part I or Part II examinations of the National Board of Medical Examiners.

摘要:

This study examines the supervision of residents by faculty members in an outpatient internal medicine practice. For the study, the investigators developed a methodology to analyze the cognitive content and the focus of residents' thoughts during conversations between faculty members and residents. The residents also identified characteristics of productive and less productive exchanges with the faculty. The study shows that both residents and faculty members use the majority of their part of conversations to present information. Residents in early training appear to be more challenged by diagnostic issues, while residents later in training are more concerned with therapy and management. The study results suggest that effective supervision may relate more to the ability of faculty members to display their reasoning as they present information to residents than to the quantity and types of questions they pose to residents.
