The "center" of a data set is also a way of describing location. The two most widely used measures of the "center" of the data are the mean (average) and the median.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Bioethics
  • Sociology of Medicine

Background:

  • Professionalism courses are the primary method for non-technical medical student socialization for over 20 years.
  • These courses integrate concepts from bioethics and "medicine and society" to define practitioner-patient-society relationships.

Observation:

  • Despite its central role, "professionalism" lacks a precise definition and clear articulation of its objectives.
  • The concept of professionalism subsumes elements of prior foundational courses.

Findings:

  • This essay employs a Foucauldian archaeological approach to investigate the historical antecedents of professionalism.
  • It examines the historical role of vocational practitioners and the recent establishment of "professionalism" as a core teaching value.

Implications:

  • Precisely locating "professionalism" within the broader history of medicine is crucial.
  • Understanding its historical context is key to defining its contemporary role in medical socialization.
