摘要
本科牙科教育的目的是使学生具备科学知识、临床技能和行为属性,为毕业后独立从事牙科工作做好准备。本研究的目的是比较自我报告的准备本科牙科学生与他们的临床导师的评估。方法:采用概率抽样的方法,对中东某大学牙科专业的高三学生进行调查。使用先前验证的牙科准备评估量表评估学生的准备情况,包括50项核心临床技能(a部分)以及认知属性和行为技能(B部分)。参与的学生也由他们的临床导师进行评估。结果:被邀请的70名学生中,有52人提供了回复,回复率为74.28%。此外,四名临床监督员还对参与者的准备情况进行了评估。学生对备考准备的平均评分显著高于导师对A部分的评分,t (93.13) = 7.48, p < 0.001;B部分,t (101.46) = 7.25, p < 0.001;总体而言,t (98.48) = 8.25, p < 0.001。讨论:本研究比较学生对牙科诊所的自我知觉准备与导师的评估。学生对自己准备程度的评价高于导师对自己准备程度的评价,表明自我感知准备程度与导师评价之间的相关性较弱。然而,导师的评估为学生提供了一个强有力的工具,可以比较他们的自我评估,反思他们毕业后工作准备的优缺点。
Preparedness of Dental Undergraduates for Clinical Practice: A Comparison Between Evaluations by Students and Academic Faculty.
Introduction: Undergraduate dental education aims to equip students with scientific knowledge, clinical skills, and behavioral attributes to prepare them for a career in independent dental practice after graduation. The purpose of this study was to compare self-reported preparedness of undergraduate dental students with evaluations by their clinical supervisors. Methods: A probability sampling technique was used to recruit final year dental students at a university in the Middle East. Preparedness of the students was assessed using a previously validated dental preparedness assessment scale encompassing 50 core clinical skills (Part A) as well as cognitive attributes and behavioral skills (Part B). The participating students were also evaluated by their clinical supervisors. Results: A total of 52 of the 70 students invited provided their responses, yielding a response rate of 74.28%. In addition, four clinical supervisors also evaluated the preparedness of the participants. The mean student ratings of their preparedness were significantly higher than ratings provided by their supervisors for Part A, t (93.13) = 7.48, p < 0.001; Part B, t (101.46) = 7.25, p < 0.001; and overall, t (98.48) = 8.25, p < 0.001. Discussion: This study compared students' self-perceived preparedness for dental practice with evaluations by their supervisors. The students rated their preparedness to be higher compared to the evaluations by their supervisors, indicating weak correlations between self-perceived preparedness and supervisors' evaluation. Nevertheless, evaluation by supervisors provides a powerful tool for students to compare their self-assessment and reflect on their strengths and weaknesses for work readiness after graduation.
