Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Female representation in the field of otolaryngology is lacking. Residency is the first point at which medical school graduates specialize in a chosen field and thus represents an opportunity to recruit and train more female otolaryngologists. This study sought to identify program factors associated with greater female representation among resident physicians.
UNASSIGNED: Departmental websites of all 124 otolaryngology residency programs in the United States and Puerto Rico were examined for a list of residents. For programs with a resident roster available, the genders of residents, faculty, program directors, and chairpersons were recorded. Location and city population for each program was also recorded, as was female resident representation. Programs were compared using Pearson Chi-squared univariate tests.
UNASSIGNED: 1,632 residents and 2,605 faculty were included in the analysis of 109 programs. The median female resident representation was 40%. Programs with larger faculty sizes, more female faculty, and urban location were associated with an above-median female resident representation. Programs with a larger residency cohort approached significance regarding above-median female resident representation. Higher female faculty representation, program director gender, chairperson gender, and US region were not associated with variation in female resident representation.
UNASSIGNED: Greater female otolaryngology residency representation was associated with programs having an urban location and greater numbers of female and total faculty. It was also likely that a larger resident cohort size may affect female resident representation. The proportions of female faculty, program director, and chairperson gender, as well as the US region, were not associated with variation in female resident gender representation.
摘要:
耳鼻喉科领域缺乏女性代表。住院医师是医学院毕业生专注于所选领域的第一点,因此代表了招募和培训更多女性耳鼻喉科医师的机会。这项研究旨在确定与住院医师中女性代表性增加相关的计划因素。
检查了美国和波多黎各所有124个耳鼻喉科住院医师计划的部门网站,以获取居民名单。对于有居民名册的项目,居民的性别,教员,项目主管,和主席被记录下来。还记录了每个节目的位置和城市人口,女性居民代表也是如此。使用Pearson卡方单变量检验比较程序。
1,632名居民和2,605名教职员工被纳入109个项目的分析。女性居民代表的中位数为40%。教师规模更大的项目,更多的女性教师,和城市位置与高于中位数的女性居民代表相关。具有较大居住队列的计划对高于中位数的女性居民代表具有重要意义。更高的女性教师代表,项目主管性别,主席性别,和美国地区与女性居民代表的差异无关。
更多的女性耳鼻喉科住院医师代表与具有城市位置和更多女性和全体教师人数的计划相关。更大的居民队列规模也可能会影响女性居民的代表性。女性教师的比例,项目主管,和主席性别,以及美国地区,与女性居民性别代表性的变化无关。
