Area of Science:

  • Medical Ethics
  • Medical Education
  • Sociology of Medicine

Context:

  • Investigating shifts in ethical attitudes among medical trainees throughout their academic and clinical progression.
  • Utilizing a standardized questionnaire to gather data from various stages of medical education: freshmen, interns, and postgraduates.

Purpose:

  • To analyze how medical students' perspectives on ethico-medical issues evolve during their medical school journey.
  • To identify key differences in ethical viewpoints between early-stage and later-stage medical trainees.

Summary:

  • Significant divergence in ethical attitudes observed between first-year students and senior trainees/postgraduates.
  • Early-stage students prioritize ethical principles, patient justice, and physician integrity.
  • Later-stage students and postgraduates emphasize professional roles, institutional regulations, therapeutic efficiency, and socioeconomic benefits.

Impact:

  • Medical education may lead to a decline in humanistic values, replaced by a focus on professional competence and self-regulation.
  • Findings suggest a need to re-evaluate medical curricula to sustain ethical and humanistic principles throughout training.
  • Highlights the influence of professional socialization on the ethical development of future physicians.
