BACKGROUND The implications of the feminisation of medicine, which is characterised by a growing proportion of female doctors, is a topic currently being debated worldwide. To date, however, there has been no systematic survey of the viewpoint of present and future doctors on this subject. The aim of the present study is to determine how future and present doctors view this trend in terms of its relevance to the medical profession and its present impacts. METHODS Of a total sample of 3813 people, 181 applicants for the winter term 2014, 590 medical students and 225 doctors of the UMG participated in this cross-sectional electronic questionnaire. The answers were analysed by means of the statistics program IBM SPSS Statistics 22. Open answers were qualitatively evaluated and categorised using the "Basiswissengeleitete offene Kategorienfindung" (Werner Früh) and coded for statistical analysis. RESULTS The majority of our participants favoured a balanced gender-ratio among doctors: 77% of applicants, 68% of students and 61% of doctors rated this as important or very important. The results from the student and applicant groups differed concerning female gender. When answering in the role of a patient, the doctor's gender was found to be more relevant than when the participants were answering in the role of the doctor. The majority of the respondents opined that feminisation had had an impact on their workplace: particular factors included part-time work, work-related organisation and the diversity of the medical profession. Commentaries were mostly categorised as negative. CONCLUSIONS The feminisation of medicine was viewed largely critically by the participants of this study. The respondents evaluated gender as being relevant for the medical profession and favoured a diverse workforce; however, the significance of one's own gender in medical practice was underrated in comparison, implying a need for more awareness of the effect of a doctor's gender on the patient-doctor-relationship. The mainly negative comments concerning the impact of feminisiation on work organisation, work satisfaction and patient care show the need for further research and action to adapt current medical work practices to the changing demographics in order to improve work satisfaction and quality of care.

申请人,学生和医师如何看待医学女性化?-问卷调查。

背景技术以女性医生的比例增加为特征的医学女性化的影响是当前全球范围内争论的话题。然而,迄今为止,还没有系统地调查当前和未来医生对此主题的看法。本研究的目的是确定未来和现在的医生如何看待这种趋势,从其与医学专业的相关性及其当前的影响。方法横断面电子问卷共3813人,2014年冬季学期的181名申请人,590名医学生和225名UMG医生参加了这一横断面电子问卷。通过统计程序IBM SPSS Statistics 22对答案进行了分析。定性评估开放式答案,并使用“ 结论这项研究的参与者在很大程度上评价了医学女性化。受访者认为性别与医学专业息息相关,并青睐多元化的员工队伍;然而,相比之下,自己的性别在医学实践中的重要性被低估了,这意味着需要更多地了解医生的性别对病人与医生的关系的影响。关于女性化对工作组织,工作满意度和患者护理的影响的主要负面评论表明,有必要进行进一步的研究和采取行动,以使当前的医疗工作实践适应不断变化的人口统计学,从而提高工作满意度和护理质量。受访者认为性别与医学专业息息相关,并青睐多元化的员工队伍;然而,相比之下,自己的性别在医学实践中的重要性被低估了,这意味着需要更多地了解医生的性别对病人与医生的关系的影响。关于女性化对工作组织,工作满意度和患者护理的影响的主要负面评论表明,有必要进行进一步的研究和采取行动,以使当前的医疗工作实践适应不断变化的人口统计学,从而提高工作满意度和护理质量。受访者认为性别与医学专业息息相关,并青睐多元化的员工队伍;然而,相比之下,自己的性别在医学实践中的重要性被低估了,这意味着需要更多地了解医生的性别对病人与医生的关系的影响。关于女性化对工作组织,工作满意度和患者护理的影响的主要负面评论表明,有必要进行进一步的研究和采取行动,以使当前的医疗工作实践适应不断变化的人口统计学,从而提高工作满意度和护理质量。
