Summary
Positive doctor role modelling involves distinct exposure and evolution phases. This research explains the modelling process, aiming to enhance medical education and professional development globally.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Professional Development
- Qualitative Research
Background:
- Role modelling is a crucial aspect of professional development in medicine.
- Understanding the dynamics of positive doctor role modelling is essential for effective training.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore and explain the intricate process of positive doctor role modelling.
- To provide a framework for enhancing the development of effective doctor role models.
Main Methods:
- Qualitative methodology employing grounded theory (Strauss and Corbin).
- Data collection through focus groups with 52 medical students and interviews with 30 consultants.
- Post-clinic interviews with 5 consultants and 5 medical students.
Main Results:
- Role modelling is a dual-phase process: exposure and evolution.
- The exposure phase involves role models demonstrating attributes.
- The evolution phase includes observation, judgement, and a model-trialling cycle.
Conclusions:
- A detailed explanation of the doctor role modelling process was generated.
- The findings can inform medical curricula to improve role model development.
- Enhancing role modelling benefits both the doctor role model and the medical student (modellee).

A model is a theoretical way to understand a concept or an idea. Models can overcome barriers to health regardless of diverse economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, models make the task easier by providing different ways to approach complex issues. There are two major health promotion models: the health belief model and the health promotion model.
The health belief model (HBM) attempts to predict health-related behavior in specific belief patterns. According to the HBM, a person's...

People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about...

Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...
