FEM (Ed. impresa) [online]. 2018, vol.21, n.6, pp.271-274. Epub 16-Ago-2021. ISSN 2014-9840. https://dx.doi.org/10.33588/fem.216.970.
Introduction:
It is important to explore the presence and influence of the professional models of the family of the qualified physician in their decision to study Medicine.
Aim:
To determine the presence and influence of professional family models in the health area in the decision to study medicine in a cohort of medical graduates.
Subjects and methods:
A cross-sectional quantitative study involving 38 recently graduated doctors from the University of Antofagasta, who answered the Survey of the Curricular Feedback Program of the Medical Education Unit of the Department of Medical Sciences of the University of Antofagasta.
Results:
Most of the respondents have professional family members of the health area. In relation to the influence of professional family models in professional choice, the results are not categorical. It is appreciated that those who achieve the appropriate degree in seven years, mostly refer to family professionals in the health area and feel influenced by these models when choosing their career.
Conclusions:
The influence on the decision to study medicine can be attributed both to motivations derived from the family influence and the expression of the subjectivity of the individual.
