Medical school factors and career choice of psychiatry
F Sierles
Using questionnaires sent to training directors, the author examined the
relationships between 35 medical school variables and selection of
psychiatry by students. The results indicate that there are complex but
significant relationships between medical school factors and choice of
psychiatry. Variables most strongly predictive of recruitment are the
academic rank of the director, the in-house prestige of the department of
psychiatry, and the receipt of a teaching award by the director. These
findings suggest that the role of the director is crucial for recruitment
and that departmental efforts which augment the prestige of the department
should enhance recruitment.
