This study identified six key factors influencing learning for general practice trainees, including patient interaction and peer support. Understanding these learning preferences is vital for effective professional development.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • General Practice Training
  • Professional Development

Background:

  • Vocational training is crucial for general practice professional development.
  • Learner-centered teaching necessitates understanding individual trainee learning styles.
  • Factors influencing learning in general practice trainees require investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify factors influencing learning among general practice trainees.
  • To explore trainee attitudes towards various aspects of their training.
  • To develop an instrument for future research on general practice learning.

Main Methods:

  • Pilot study involving a questionnaire survey of 261 general practice trainees across six UK regions.
  • Exploration of themes identified through semi-structured interviews.

  • Principal components analysis to identify distinct subscales of learning attitudes.

    • Main Results:

    • Six subscales were identified: 'Learning from Patients', 'Openness to Criticism', 'Negative Attitudes', 'Desire for Clear Guidelines', 'Peer Support', and 'Academic Approach'.
    • Male trainees scored significantly higher on the 'Academic Approach' subscale (P < 0.05).
    • These subscales reflect pervasive themes within general practice training environments.

    Conclusions:

    • The identified subscales offer insights into the learning atmosphere for general practice trainees.
    • Further research is needed to link these subscales to learning outcomes and continuing professional development.
    • The developed questionnaire may be a valuable tool for future investigations into general practice learning.
