| description | Professionalism is the foundation of trust on which the doctor-patient relationship is built. This study was performed to measure
professionalism in Iranian physical medicine and rehabilitation residents as a baseline assessment tool for future studies.
This was a descriptive study. The Persian version of the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) questionnaire was
distributed among all the second and third-year residents of the medical state universities of Iran (n=43). Data were summarized
as mean (SD), and independent samples t-test was used for comparison of means between genders, and also between the second
and third-year residents.
Forty questionnaires were analyzed. The mean (± SD) age of respondents was 29.95 (± 2.37) years. The mean score (SD) for the
overall score was 115.15 (± 17.36) out of 150, and the mean score (± SD) for all items was 7.67 (± 1.15) out of 10. The
respondents averaged 5.88 (± 1.69) for items forming the ‘excellence’ factor, 7.98 (± 1.48) for items in ‘altruism/respect’ and
8.92 (± 1.26) for items in the ‘honor/integrity’ subscale.
These data may serve as a baseline for future research in this field. The lowest score pertained to excellence, which needs more
focus in future studies. |
