Abstract

Medical students in a tutorial program rated themselves in Year 1 and again in Year 2 on Knowledge, Reasoning, Communication and Interpersonal Skills. Student and tutor ratings were similar in Year 1 but different in Year 2. Both self- and tutor ratings increased from Year 1 to Year 2 but self-ratings were independent of achievement while tutor ratings were related to achievement. Possible reasons for these results were discussed with reference to the learning goals of the tutorials.

The pediatric clerkship director. Support systems, professional development, and academic credentials.

Since the advent of the clerkship at The Johns Hopkins Medical School in the late 19th century, this model has been the backbone of clinical training for medical students throughout the world. Despite the pervasiveness of clerkships, little information exists about the faculty that oversees them administratively. We documented the reported academic credentials, professional development, and support systems for pediatric clerkship directors in the United States and Canada. Our findings should be useful to clerkship directors and department chairpersons across disciplines.

Differential family environments of bulimics and victims of childhood sexual abuse: achievement orientation.

Although bulimics' family functioning usually is reported to be abnormal, the present study examined whether these abnormalities are specific to bulimia or whether they may be due to covariation with another problem associated with abnormal family functioning, childhood sexual abuse (CSA). Consistent with prior research, the family environments of bulimic and normal eaters, as well as abused and nonabused subjects, differed significantly. However, when eating behavior and abuse status were analyzed concurrently, significant differences between bulimics and normals failed to emerge. Abnormal family environment was associated more closely with CSA than with bulimia. The one abnormality unique to bulimia was the family's heightened emphasis on achievement. The potential importance of familial achievement orientation is discussed.
