Motivation for Medicine in the Seventies
Abstract
A department of psychiatry in Hawaii undertook an exploratory study of the motivational patterns of entering freshmen, relating these to problems of selection, performance, and the educational system itself. The authors, noting that the motivations of students seem to be changing and that a different value system is emerging, call for further study to more accurately assess the values and needs of prospective students and to reassess the educational process.
