摘要

醫學生之家庭醫學教學，藉由吸引醫學生將來投入家庭醫業的行列，已被公認為推展家庭醫學的重要基礎之一。為瞭解本院醫學生之家庭醫學教學對醫學生相關態度之影響，本研究以本院1989年醫學系五年級醫學生計140人為對象，於課前及課後，以所設計之相關態度問卷加以測試。計完成課前及課後有效問卷者有123人，其中以男性佔86.2%，公費醫學生佔13.8%，有另外參加家庭醫學臨床見習課程者佔21.1%，而醫學生之平均年齡為24.9歲。醫學生在課前對家庭醫學抱持著不確定的態度，且不同社會胡景之學生組間的態度得分並無顯著之差異。醫學生之課後各類態度得分均較課前者有顯著地增加，尤以家庭醫學在我國發展之前景這組態度之得分增加情形最多，而以將來是否會選擇家庭醫業為其事業方向這組態度得分增加情形與醫學生之某些背景資料相關。本研究顯示本院醫學生之家庭醫學教學，確能增加醫學生對家庭醫學之正向態度。

Undergraduate education is considered to be one of the main contributory factors for the development of family medicine through increasing the number of medical graduates opting for a career in family practice. To evaluate the effects of family medicine education on students’ attitudes, 140 fifth year medical students were asked in 1989 to fill in a questionnaire both before and after their curricula. The average age of the 123 students who completed the questionnaire on both occasions was 24.9 years; 106 were males; 17 were tuition free and 26 took additional family medicine clerkships On aggregate, the students’ disposition towand family medicine before their curricula appeared to be uncertain. Mean scores on the attitude scale did not significantly differ between socioeconomic subgroups before the curricula. After the curricula, students’ attitudes were significantly practice as a career changed the least. The degree of alteration in students’ attitude toward family medicine before and after the curricula was related to the intensity of the course and to their socioeconomic backgrounds.
