    Area of Science:

    • Health Professions Education
    • Quality Assurance in Healthcare
    • Continuing Professional Development

    Background:

    • Understanding factors influencing health professional engagement in quality assurance and continuing education is crucial.
    • The intrapersonal conflict hypothesis provides a framework for analyzing participation decisions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the intrapersonal conflict hypothesis regarding health professional participation in a quality assurance and continuing education program.
    • To identify key predictors of participation and nonparticipation.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized the intrapersonal conflict hypothesis.
    • Employed discriminant analysis to evaluate the impact of perceived benefits and social barriers on participation.
    • Analyzed data from health professionals in a demonstration program.

    Main Results:

    • Perceived benefits and social barriers significantly predicted participation (p < .024 and p < .005, respectively).
    • Discriminant analysis indicated that perceived benefits had a stronger influence on participation than social barriers.
    • The developed model demonstrated practical utility in explaining engagement.

    Conclusions:

    • Perceived benefits and social barriers are significant determinants of health professional engagement in quality assurance and continuing education.
    • Interventions aimed at increasing participation should focus on highlighting benefits and mitigating social barriers.
    • The intrapersonal conflict hypothesis effectively explains participation dynamics in professional development activities.
