Survey Report on Cultivating Research Abilities of Clinical Eight-Year Medical Students
Objective:To understand the current status of cultivating research abilities of eight-year medical students,their expectations for research training,and analyze potential factors influencing their research abilities.Based on the survey results,provide a reference basis for the reform of clinical eight-year medical education at our university.Methods:A questionnaire survey was conducted,targeting both current students(74)and graduates(36)of eight-year clinical medicine at Huazhong University of Science and Technology.The questionnaire included single-choice,multiple-choice,and open-ended questions,totaling 16 questions,including 2 subjective questions.The survey covered research participation time,obtained research results,and post-graduation research funding status to understand their research status after employment.Results:Through chi-square tests,among eight-year students who started research in the third year,those who published papers accounted for a higher proportion(43.8％,7 people),suggesting that early exposure to research might be more conducive to publishing papers during school,but there was no significant difference statistically(P=0.7).Correlation analysis indicated a certain relationship between accumulated research exposure time and whether articles were published during school.Analyzing post-graduation paper publication and funding acquisition,there was no statistical difference between paper publication during school and after graduation(P=0.24).There was no significant correlation between paper publication during school and post-graduation funding acquisition(P=0.7),but there was a significant correlation between post-graduation paper publication and funding acquisition(P=0.03).Conclusion:The limited duration of eight-year research training,low proportions of paper publication during school and after graduation,and funding acquisition suggest that the majority of eight-year students find the research training duration unreasonable,with 66.7％considering two or more years of research training time to be reasonable.Accumulated research exposure time is correlated with whether articles were published during school,and post-graduation paper publication is correlated with post-graduation funding acquisition.Therefore,extending research exposure time and maintaining continuous efforts are crucial for whether papers can be published and funding obtained during school and after graduation.
