Sixty-one percent (1,139) responded, of which 56% were FP physicians and 44% were in IM. On a visual analog scale to measure the physicians' interest in geriatrics education (from 1 = unimportant to 10 = very important), the FP physicians' mean score was 6.4; the IM physicians' mean score was 6.1. The preferred form of education was a two-to-three-day conference, and the preferred topics were acute care, long-term care, and rehabilitation. Stepwise multiple regression showed that the physicians' intent to take the Added Qualifications in Geriatric Medicine examination was the major predictor of their interest in geriatrics education (R2 = .12, p = .0001). Also significant contributors were the total amount of geriatric care the physicians provided, the home visits they provided, their prior participation in geriatrics CME conferences, absence of a negative attitude toward the Medicare system, and their lack of confidence in their current knowledge of geriatrics. The final model could account for 20% of these physicians' interest in future CME in geriatrics (R2 = .20). These findings may help geriatrics educators develop methods to educate primary care providers about geriatrics.","PeriodicalId":72490,"journal":{"name":"California state journal of medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1097/00001888-199109000-00015","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"61714188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In almost every area, the news is good. Finances The financial situation of the Control Systems Society seems to be very solid at this time. Financial Vice President Jim Melsa is predicting a surplus for 1986 of more than $99 K, bringing our reserves to over $500 K. This means that we have about one year's worth of expenses in reserve, which is great. Because of our solid financial position, we were able to hold this year's CDC in Athens without financial trepidation. We are also able to increase membership services in ways described later. Thanks, Jim, for a job well done. I am sure that incoming Financial Vice President Bill Levine will continue to exercise careful control of our Society's financial resources. Membership Membership was my number one priority when I became President. In this area, there is some good news and bad news. The bad news is that our membership growth is at a standstill, just as it was in 1985. We are losing as many members as are joining. A new Membership Retention Committee was created to focus rittention on how to retain April 1987 members. Any ideas you have on this are most welcome. The good news, and I am happy to repon that there is a lot of it, is in no small measure due to Membership Vice President Jane Cul-lum. Jane has brought tremendous vigor, energy , and creativity to this job. Our Distinguished Lectureship Program, which is now available to Society Chapters, is getting off the ground. It should provide tremendous resources to our Chapters, because , as we understand it, one of the most difficult problems a Chapter faces is arranging for top-flight speakers at meetings. Such speakers are a part of our Distinguished Lec-tureship Program, so Chapters please avail yourself of them! We are embarking on a Tutorial-Overview Videotape Program, which will be implemented by IEEE. Our first tape, which is on the subject of automated manufacturing, will be available sometime this spring. A new Control Systems Society Technology Award has been approved. It is aimed primarily at our industrial members. We will also be one of the sponsoring IEEE societies of a new IEEE Judith Resnik Field Aw'ard.
