L S Linn, C E Lewis, B Leake

    Journal of General Internal Medicine
    |July 1, 1987
    PubMed
    Summary

    Academic general internists prioritize skills in their current work areas. Those in patient care or research showed less interest in developing skills outside their primary focus.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • General Internal Medicine
    • Faculty Development

    Background:

    • Continuing medical education (CME) needs assessment for academic general internists.
    • Understanding physician time allocation and skill development interests is crucial for faculty development programs.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the continuing medical education interests and needs of academic general internists.
    • To determine how physicians allocate time among core activities and their interest in skill improvement.

    Main Methods:

    • A random sample of 1985 physician members of SREPCIM (Society for Research and Education in Primary Care Medicine) was surveyed.
    • Physicians described time allocation in patient care, teaching, supervision, administration, and research.
    • Perceived importance of skills and interest in faculty development programs were assessed.

    Main Results:

    • Physicians tended to value and seek improvement in skills related to activities where they already spent more time.
    • Increased time in patient care correlated with lower interest in teaching and research skill development.
    • Increased time in research correlated with lower interest in patient care skill development.

    Conclusions:

    • Faculty development programs must align with physicians' current time allocation and interests.
    • Addressing the diverse needs of academic general internists is essential for future manpower planning.
    • Specialization in practice (patient care vs. research) influences CME needs and faculty development interests.
