    مقدمه

     این مطالعه با هدف تعیین نگرش دانشجویان دندان پزشکی اصفهان نسبت به رشته ی تحصیلی و آینده ی شغلی خود در سال 1399-1400 انجام شد.

    مواد و روش ها

     این مطالعه در بهار سال 1400 در دانشکده ی دندان پزشکی دانشگاه علوم پزشکی اصفهان انجام شد. در این مطالعه 220 نفر از دانشجویان سال سوم و سال آخر دندان پزشکی شرکت کردند. از پرسش نامه ای پژوهشگرساخته جهت بررسی نگرش دانشجویان در دو حیطه ی رشته ی تحصیلی (9 سوال) و آینده ی شغلی (11 سوال) استفاده و پاسخ دهی به سوالات توسط مقیاس لیکرت 5 نمره ای انجام شد. نتایج با میانگین و انحراف معیار گزارش شد و جهت تحلیل داده ها نیز از آزمون T استفاده شد. سطح معنی داری در آنالیزها 0/05 در نظر گرفته شد.

    یافته ها

     نمره ی نگرش به رشته ی تحصیلی 32/76 (5/18±) بود که بالاتر از حد متوسط است. همچنین نمره ی نگرش به آینده ی شغلی 29/89 (5/89±) بود که پایین تر از حد متوسط است. آزمون T نشان داد که در مورد میانگین نمره ی رشته ی تحصیلی تفاوت معنی داری بین دانشجویان سال سوم و سال آخر وجود دارد (0/02 p value <) ولی میانگین نمره ی آینده ی شغلی فاقد تفاوت معنای دار است (0/093  value <p).

    نتیجه گیری

     نگرش دانشجویان دندان پزشکی نسبت به رشته ی تحصیلی خود بالاتر از حد متوسط (مثبت) ولی نسبت به آینده ی شغلی خود پایین تر از حد متوسط بود که از جمله دلایل آن بروز نگرانی هایی مانند شرایط اقتصادی جامعه و افزایش پذیرش دانشجویان در مراکز متعدد دانشگاهی است که تاثیر منفی بر نگرش دانشجویان می گذارد.

    Introduction

    This study aimed to determine the attitude of Isfahan dental students toward their field of study and Future careers in 2020-2021.

    Materials and Methods

    This study was conducted in the spring of 1400 at the Faculty of Dentistry of Isfahan University of Medical Sciences. 220 third and final-year dental students participated in this study. A researcher-made questionnaire with a 5-point Likert scale was used to examine students' attitudes in fields of study (9 questions) and future careers (11 questions). The results were reported with mean and standard deviation and T-test was used to analyze the data. The significance level in the analyzes was considered 0.05.

    Results

    The score of the attitude towards the field of study was 32.76 (± 5.18), which is above the average. Also, the score of the attitude towards the future career was 29.89 (±5.89), which is lower than the average. The T-test showed a significant difference between the third-year and final-year students in the average score of the academic field (p value < 0.02).

    Conclusion

    The attitude of dental students towards their field of study is higher than the average (positive) but towards their future career is lower than the average, which can be due to the economic conditions of the society or an increase in the number of dental students, which hurts attitude of students towards their future career.

    Background
    Medical students’ specialty selection influences the composition of the physician workforce and the effectiveness of health systems. Therefore, the identification of factors that influence the choice of specialty is critical for an evidence-based health policy. This study aimed to investigate the effect of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on the determinants of specialty choice among Iranian medical residents.
    Methods
    In early 2022, this qualitative study was conducted among Iranian medical residents in seven provinces, including Tehran, Isfahan, Fars, Khorasan Razavi, Kerman, Kermanshah, and Khuzestan. The participants were selected using a purposeful sampling method. Data were collected using 74 semi-structured in-depth face-to-face interviews. Finally, a thematic content analysis (conventional content analysis) method was applied for data synthesis.
    Results
    The participant’s mean age was 28.7±2.5 years, and more than 52% (N=39) were men. Following data synthesis, 10 sub-themes and four main themes were identified, including educational aspects affected by the pandemic, career-related hazards, personal and professional lifestyles affected by the disease, and experiences and beliefs regarding the pandemic.
    Conclusion
    The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on medical students’ educational, professional, and personal aspects of specialty choices. This study demonstrated how the disease affected the choice of specialty. Therefore, the findings could be used for developing national health policy and planning.

    Background & Aim

    Nursing staff shortages pose challenges for healthcare systems, worsened by student dropouts. This study explores the factors driving students to choose nursing to leave their programs and the relationship between reasons for choice and intentions to withdraw.

    Methods & Materials: 

    A cross-sectional study was conducted at three public nursing institutes in Marrakech-Safi, Morocco. Employing a consensus sampling approach questionnaire was employed for data collection, and the data were analyzed using SPSS software (version 22). We used descriptive statistics to understand why students choose nursing and why they consider dropping out. Logistic regression was utilized to explore the correlation between reasons for selecting nursing and the intention to drop out.

    Results

    Students primarily chose nursing to care for and help others (3.72±1.12), influenced by family/friends (3.60±1.19), and a personal interest in nursing (3.46±1.15). 28.45% of participants contemplated the idea of discontinuing their program. This inclination was mainly attributed to unfavorable clinical placements (3.59±1.21), psychological distress (3.38±1.28), and a tough curriculum (3.34±1.29). According to the predictive model, students motivated by job availability (3.587; 95% CI, 2.914-4.416; p˂.001), salary prospects (1.259; 95% CI, 1.054-1.504; p=.011), and opportunities for international work and/or study (1.196; 95% CI, 1.010-1.417; p=.038) were more likely to drop out.

    Conclusion

    Improving clinical learning conditions, promoting a positive perception of the nursing profession, and admitting candidates driven by the aspiration to offer support and comfort to individuals appear to be pivotal in retaining students.

    Background
    The medical specialty choice of physicians directly affects the healthcare system, community wellbeing, and their own professional life. It is therefore important to identify its underlying factors to predict such medical career choices and to draw up a comprehensive evidence-based public health policy and health human resources planning. The present qualitative study aimed to identify these determinants of career choices through semi-structured interviews with medical doctors in the context of country-specific social and cultural characteristics.
    Methods
    The present qualitative study was carried out in 2019-2020 at Shiraz University of Medical Sciences (Shiraz, Iran). The target population was medical students, junior doctors, and medical residents. The purposive sampling method was used to recruit the participants and sampling continued until data saturation, i.e., no new information could be extracted. Data were collected through individual, face-to-face, semi-structured interviews and analyzed using the conventional content analysis method. Inductive thematic analysis was used to interpret the data based on which a thematic map was developed illustrating the factors influencing medical specialty preferences in Iran. Data trustworthiness was assessed according to the criteria proposed by Guba and Lincoln. 
    Results
    Analysis of the interview data resulted in three main themes and fourteen sub-themes. The main themes were “Personal determinants”, “Career-related factors”, and “Interpersonal influences”. The most important sub-themes were personal interests, income, and prestige.
    Conclusion
    The determinants influencing the specialty preferences of Iranian medical doctors are identified. Our findings will facilitate the development of a comprehensive evidence-based public health policy, health human resources planning, and appropriate medical education policy.

    BACKGROUND AND AIM

    Medical career exploration is a continuous process that one should invest on throughout their academic life. However, lack of resources and time are the main barriers in establishing suitable intervention. Therefore, the needs for flexible intervention are crucial, as it can improve medical career choices. This study aimed to improve career self‑efficacy and to open the insight of medical students in choosing a variety of medical careers.

    MATERIAL AND METHODS

    This study was conducted using quasi‑experimental study design with nonequivalent control groups design (pretest‑posttest) using a modified model from a preexisting medical career intervention (MedJob™) labeled as MiniMedJob™. A total of 122 1st‑year medical students from Sriwijaya University, Indonesia, were voluntarily joining the study. The effectiveness of MiniMedJob™ in increasing students’ self‑efficacy was evaluated using Wilcoxon and Mann– Whitney statistical tests using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 24.0, Armonk, New York.

    RESULTS

    MiniMedJob™ was proven effective to improve medical students’ career self‑efficacy (P = 0,000). The mean of the pretest and posttest for the intervention group was 77.79 ± 10.12 and 87 ± 8.36, respectively. While for the control group, the mean of pretest was 87.00 ± 8.36 and for the posttest group was 83.55 ± 7.96. Despite the higher score of the intervention group compared to control group, statistically, it was insignificantly different (P = 0,084).

    CONCLUSIONS

    MiniMedJob™ is proven effective in improving medical students career self‑efficacy despite their shorter period and fewer activities compared to preexisting intervention model.

    از میان 150 دانشجو گروه هدف، 65 (43%) نفر به پرسش نامه های ارائه شده پاسخ دادند. از این میان، 36 نفر (55.4%) مرد بودند. میانگین (انحراف معیار) سن پاسخ دهندگان (1.1) 22.0 بود. بیشتر پاسخ دهندگان (44 نفر، 67.7%) اعلام کردند که پس از کسب مدرک عمومی، تمایلی به ادامه تحصیل در مقاطع بالاتر ندارند. در میان گروهی که قصد کسب تخصص داشتند، رشته فارماسیوتیکس محبوب تر بود. 28 نفر (43.1%) از پاسخ دهندگان انجام پژوهش پس از فراغت از تحصیل را از اولویت های خود اعلام کردند. از لحاظ اشتغال، بیشتر پاسخ دهندگان (87.7%) کار در بخش خصوصی را ترجیح دادند و اکثر آنها (80%) درآمد ماهانه بین 1 تا 10 میلیون تومان را برای خود پیش بینی کرداند. بین سن و جنسیت با تمایل برای کسب تخصص و همچنین کار در نهادهای دولتی ارتباط معنی داری وجود نداشت. بین جنسیت و سطح درآمدی مورد انتظار ارتباط معنی داری وجود داشت به طوری که مردان درآمد بیشتری را برای خود پیش بینی کردند (0.03 = P).
    نتیجه گیری
    سیاست گذاران آموزش پزشکی نیاز به شناسایی علائق و اهداف دانشجویان دارند تا بتوانند در طول دوران تحصیل به طور مناسبی به آنها جهت دهی کنند. بررسی علاقه های تحصیلی و شغلی دانشجویان داروسازی در سایر نقاط کشور و با حجم نمونه بالاتر، و ایجاد زیرساخت های مناسب برای انجام فعالیت های تخصصی برای داروسازان ضروری به نظر می رسد.

    Background
    Precise planning and providing appropriate career field for pharmacists is depended on recognition of their interests and their educational and career goals. This study was designed to identify career and educational goals and preferences of pharmacy students and the effective factors on them.
    Methods
    The study was performed on students of 3rd, 4th and 5th year of pharmacy school, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran. Subjects were answered to predesigned questionnaire containing questions about their demographic characteristics and their educational and career goals and preferences. Impact of demographic characteristics on the responses was also statistically analyzed.
    Results
    Of the 150 pharmacy students as the target, 65 (43%) subjects responded to the questionnaires. Of these, 36 respondents (55.4%) were men. Mean (SD) age of the respondents was 22.0 (1.1). Most of the respondents (n = 44, 67.7%) stated that after achieving PharmD degree, they are not intended to study in postgraduate levels. Among the group who intended to study in pharmacy residencies, pharmaceutical sciences was the most popular field. Twenty-eight respondents (43 %) stated that research after graduation is one of their preferences. In terms of employment, most respondents (87.7%) preferred to work in the private sector and most of them (80%) predicted a monthly income of between 400 and 4000 dollars for themselves. There was no relationship between age and gender with intention for study in pharmacy residency and work in public sector. However, there was a significant relationship between gender and predicted income as men predicted higher incomes for themselves (P=0.03).
    Conclusion
    Policy makers of medical education need to identify students’ interests and goals in order to appropriately guide them during academic years. Exploring pharmacy students’ educational and career interests in other parts of the country and with a larger sample size, and developing the essential infrastructures for pharmacists to provide more specialized services seem inevitable.

    مقدمه
    عوامل مختلفی در انتخاب رشته ی دندانپزشکی توسط دانشجویان این رشته دخالت دارند. این عوامل در ایجاد علاقه و نگرش دانشجویان نسبت به رشته ی خویش موثر بوده و از عوامل موثر در کیفیت ارائه خدمات توسط آنان نیز می باشد. این مطالعه با هدف تعیین عوامل موثر بر انتخاب رشته دندانپزشکی از دیدگاه دانشجویان دندانپزشکی و تفاوت های احتمالی در گرایش دو جنس انجام گرفت.
    روش ها
    این مطالعه به روش توصیفی برروی دانشجویان دندانپزشکی سطح کشور که در کنگره دانشجویی شرکت نموده بودند، با نمونه گیری تصادفی انجام شد. از پرسشنامه برای جمع آوری اطلاعات استفاده گردید. روایی پرسشنامه ها توسط اساتید تایید شد و پایایی آن با استفاده از آلفای کرونباخ ارزیابی گردید. پرسشنامه ها با 22 سوال در میان 325 دانشجو توزیع گردید و میزان موافقت دانشجویان با هر سوال در مقیاس لیکرت 7 نقطه ای، سنجیده شد. تجزیه و تحلیل داده ها با استفاده از روش های آماری توصیفی -استنباطی نظیر آزمون های t مستقل و ضریب همبستگی پیرسون انجام شد.
    نتایج
    در مجموع 283 دانشجو (112 پسر، 171 دختر) با میانگین سنی 04/2±3/22 پرسشنامه ها را تکمیل نمودند. بر اساس میانگین نمره، عواملی همچون کسب شغل آبرومند از نظر اجتماعی(92/4)، آینده شغلی مطمئن (84/4) و درآمد بالا نسبت به مشاغل دیگر (84/4) مهم ترین دلایل انتخاب رشته دندانپزشکی بودند. در حالی که فرصت برای تحقیق (61/2) و شناخت قبلی از ماهیت رشته دندانپزشکی(65/2) کم ترین اهمیت را داشتند. در بررسی ابعاد موثر بر انتخاب رشته دندانپزشکی بین دو جنس، تنها میانگین بعد «علاقه به دانش دندانپزشکی» در زنان بیشتر از مردان بود (039/0p=). ولی از ابعاد دیگر تفاوت معناداری بین دو جنس مشاهده نشد.
    نتیجه گیری
    از نظر دانشجویان کسب موقعیت قابل قبول اجتماعی، اطمینان از آینده شغلی و درآمد مناسب از عوامل مهم در انتخاب رشته دندانپزشکی بود. از لحاظ مهم ترین عوامل موثر در انتخاب رشته دندانپزشکی، تفاوتی بین دو جنس وجود نداشت. با توجه به هزینه های بالای آموزشی و نیاز به ارتقای کیفیت خدمات بهداشتی درمانی به نظر می رسد فرهنگ سازی بیشتر و توجه به توانمندی ها و خصوصیات فراشناختی مناسب برای دانشجویان در انتخاب رشته ضروری است.

    Introduction
    Students’ choice of dentistry as the discipline of study is influenced by several factors. These factors influence the interest and attitude of these students towards their future career and are the important aspects in the quality of services provided by them. Given the importance of this issue، this study aims to investigate the views of dental students about important factors influencing their choice of dentistry as discipline، and possible differences among the two genders.
    Methods
    This descriptive study was performed nationwide on dental students who had participated in Student Congress using random sampling. Data was collected using a questionnaire which its validity was approved by qualified professors and its reliability was assessed using Cronbach''s alpha test. The questionnaire had 22 questions and was distributed among a random sample of 325 students. Their agreement with each question was measured on a 7-point Likert scale. Data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical tests such as independent t -test and Pearson correlation coefficient.
    Results
    A total of 283 students (112 males، 171 females) with a mean age of 22. 3±2. 04 completed the questionnaire. Based on the mean scores، factors such as a socially decent career (4. 92)، job security (4. 84) and a high-paying job (4. 84) were the main reasons for choosing dentistry. This is while considering dentistry as an opportunity for research (2. 61) and having information or background about dentistry (2. 65) were the least important factors. Investigating aspects affecting dentistry choice between the two genders، only being keen on the scientific aspect of dentistry was significantly higher in female students than that of males (P=0. 039). Other factors were not significantly different between the sexes.
    Conclusion
    In students’ opinion، acceptable social position، ensured future of the work and proper income were the most important factors in choosing dentistry. Also regarding the most important factors in choosing dentistry، there was not any significant difference between two sexes. Due to the high cost of education and the requirements for providing a high quality of health care، it seems that more attention is required toward the cultural superiorities and cognitive abilities necessary for the students to choose their study courses.

    زمینه و هدف
    تحول در نظام آموزش پزشکی کشور از سیاست های اصلی وزارت بهداشت می باشد. لذا، توجه به انگیزه های درونداد این سیستم در کنار سایر تحولات موجود مطرح است. انتخاب رشته تحصیلی و شغلی از رفتارهایی است که با توجه به انگیزه هایی صورت می گیرد که تقدم و تاخر آن در همه یکسان نیست. لذا، این مطالعه با هدف تعیین عوامل موثر برانگیزه دانشجویان پرستاری از انتخاب رشته تحصیلی خود انجام شد.
    روش بررسی
    پژوهش حاضر مطالعه ای توصیفی- تحلیلی می باشد. نمونه های پژوهش شامل139دانشجوی پرستاری ترم یک شاغل به تحصیل در دانشکده های دولتی پرستاری و مامایی شهرهای استان مازندران در سال تحصیلی 90-89 بودند که به روش سر شماری انتخاب شدند. ابزار گرد آوری داده ها، پرسش نامه دو قسمتی بود که بخش اول آن شامل: اطلاعات دموگرافیکو، بخش دوم مشتمل بر 19 سئوال در طیف لیکرت سه درجه ای بود که در سه حیطه: انگیزه فردی، انگیزه اجتماعی و انگیزه حرفه ای، هدف مشارکت کنندگان را از انتخاب رشته پرستاری بررسی نمود.
    یافته ها
    میانگین سنی مشارکت کنندگان 1/05±19/32 سال (24-18 سال) بود. 70نفر (50/4 درصد) از نمونه ها را دختران و بقیه را پسران تشکیل دادند.این مطالعه نشان دادکه اکثریت مشارکت کنندگان «فرصتی برای کسب مدارک عالی تحصیلی» را به عنوان بالاترین انگیزه خود از انتخاب رشته پرستاری بیان نمودند. هم چنین دانشجویان پسر و دختر به ترتیب «محتوای علمی رشته پرستاری» و «کسب موقعیت شغلی» را به عنوان اولویت دوم خود برای انتخاب رشته پرستاری، ذکر نمودند.
    بحث و نتیجه گیری
    با توجه به این که عوامل مرتبط با انگیزه های فردی در مقایسه با سایر عوامل، در انتخاب رشته پرستاری موثرتر می باشند، لذا، به نظر می رسد که نتایج حاصل از این تحقیق می تواند، برای استادان مشاور دانشجویان پرستاری در شناسایی علایق و انگیزه های ادامه تحصیل آنان و راهنمایی بهتر دانش آموزان در انتخاب آگاهانه رشته پرستاری توسط مشاوران مدرسه موثر باشد.

    Background And Objective
    Revolution in medical education system is one of the major policies of the Ministry of Health. Thus, it is suggested that input motives in this system be paid attention to along with other existing turnabouts. Career and major choice is also affected by our motives which are not of equal importance to everyone. The goal of this study was to determine the students’ motivation for choosing nursing as a career.
    Methods
    This descriptive cross-sectional study was done on 139 nursing students in the first semester who were studying at state medical science universities in Mazandaran province. The participants were selected through a census among all subjects who were willing to participate in the study. To collect data, a two-part questionnaire was used. The first part dealt with demographic information and the second part included 19 questions on Likert scale which revolved around three domains including personal motive, social motive and professional motive in order to determine their purpose of choosing nursing major.
    Results
    The mean age of the participants was 19.32±1.05 years (18–24). 70 (50.4%) were female and the rest were male. Our findings showed that the most participants marked "a chance to get higher degrees" as the strongest motive for choosing nursing major. Also we found that the boys reported "a chance to get higher degrees" and "scientific content" as their first two priorities, whereas the girls reported "a chance to get higher degrees" and "career choice" as their first two priorities.
    Conclusion
    Attention to the findings of this research could have some ideas for student's supervisors in order to identifying their student's interests and motivations in education. Also, it is suggested that school counselors should be upgraded in order to make students familiar with this profession and help accept more motivated students into universities.

  • Motives for entering nursing in Iran: A qualitative study
    Zahra Tayebi, Nahid Dehghan Nayeri, Reza Negarandeh, Shirin Shahbazi
    Context: Choosing a career is an important decision for each individual, which is affected by many different factors. The process of entering nursing, as one of the pivotal healthcare discipline, certainly affects quality of care, and retention of nurses in the profession.
    Aims
    Exploring factors affecting the students’ decision to enter nursing.Setting and Design: This qualitative content analysis was carried at the school of Nursing and Midwifery of Tehran University of medical sciences.
    Materials And Methods
    The semi structured interview method was used to conduct this qualitative study on 11 nursing freshmen in 2010. We transcribed the interviews verbatim and analyzed them using the conventional content analysis approach.
    Results
    Four main categories, reflecting the factors affecting the participants’ decision to enter nursing emerged in this study: Capabilities of the profession, coercion, having an interest in the medical and allied health fields, and receiving positive feedbacks. The participants had tried to gather information about nursing through different sources, including nurses and other health care professionals, counselors and Internet, which almost all the time, yielded to no useful information and sometimes with negative feedback.
    Conclusions
    Findings revealed that, unlike other countries, although few participants had entered nursing with a real interest in helping and caring for others, other factors such as having an interest in the medical and allied health fields, coercion, and good employment opportunities were the most important motives. Students’ lack of knowledge about the profession deserves special attention. Nursing managers’ should try to introduce the reality of nursing to the public and as a result, attract more competent students to the profession.

    مقدمه
    در بعضی از کشورها تعداد دانشجویان پزشکی که روانپزشکی را به عنوان تخصص انتخاب می کنند رو به کاهش است. هدف از پژوهش حاضر بررسی تاثیر گذراندن دوره کارآموزی روانپزشکی بر اولویت های انتخاب رشته تخصصی به عنوان گزینه های حرفه ای آینده، و احترام به تخصص های بالینی در دانشجویان پزشکی بود.
    روش ها
    در این مطالعه توصیفی تحلیلی، نمونه پژوهش شامل 104 نفر از دانشجویان سال پنجم پزشکی دانشگاه جندی شاپور اهواز است که از بهار87 تا بهار 89 وارد دوره روانپزشکی شدند. آزمودنی ها قبل و بعد از گذراندن دوره روانپزشکی یک پرسشنامه نگرش نسبت به روانپزشکی و یک پرسشنامه جهت سنجش اولویت ها و میزان احترام به تخصص های بالینی را تکمیل کردند. داده ها با استفاده از آماره های توصیفی، ضریب همبستگی اسپیرمن و آزمونt زوجی مورد تجزیه و تحلیل قرار گرفت.
    نتایج
    میانگین نمره نگرش دانشجویان نسبت به رشته رواتپزشکی قبل از گذراندن دوره کارورزی روانپزشکی(17/9±36/42) با این میانگین پس از طی دوره (86/6±78/47) تفاوت آماری معنادار داشت (001/.=P، 45/5-=t). میانگین و انحراف معیار نمره نگرش در خرده مقیاس های شایستگی های کلی رشته روانپزشکی، تعریف نقش و کارکرد روانپزشکان، جذابیت های شخصی و شغلی (001/0p،80/0r=). پس از گذراندن دوره اگر چه میزان احترام به روانپزشکی افزایش یافت اما همچنان کمتر از سایر تخصص ها بود.
    نتیجه گیری
    نگرش نسبت به روانپزشکی تنها عامل تاثیرگذار در انتخاب تخصص نیست و علی رغم ارتقای نگرش دانشجویان نسبت به روانپزشکی، تفاوت معناداری در اولویت های آنها ایجاد نشد. اگرچه پس از گذراندن دوره کارآموزی، میزان احترام به روانپزشکی افزایش یافت اما همچنان کمتر از سایر تخصص ها بود.

    Introduction
    The number of medical students choosing psychiatry as specialty is declining in some countries. The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of passing the psychiatric clerkship on consideration of various specialties as prospective career options and their respect for clinical specialties in medical students.
    Methods
    In this analytical study, the sample included 104 fifth year medical students of Jundishapur University in Ahwaz who started psychiatric clerkship between spring 2007 and spring 2010. The subjects completed a demographic form, an attitude toward psychiatry questionnaire and a questionnaire to assess priorities and respect for clinical specialties, before and after their psychiatric clerkship. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Spearman correlation coefficient, and paired sample t-test.
    Results
    The results showed that mean of total scores of attitude before (42.36±9.18), and after psychiatry rotation (47.78±6.86) were significantly different (t=-5.45, p=.001). The mean score of subscales of “overall merits of psychiatry’, “role definition and functioning of psychiatrists”, and “career and personal rewards” were also changed significantly (p<0.001), also score for “possible abuses and social criticisms”, improved significantly(p=0.01) after psychiatric clerkship, but there was no significant difference in “efficacy” subscale (p=0.14). In the priorities of students before and after passing the psychiatric clerkship also there was no significant difference, as there was high positive correlation(r=0.80, p<0.001) between priorities order before and after the clerkship. Respect to psychiatry increased after passing the clerkship, but was still less than other specialties.
    Conclusion
    Attitude toward psychiatry isn’t the only effective factor in choosing the specialty, and in spite of the significant improvement of students’ attitude toward psychiatry, it did not make a significant difference in their priorities. Although after the clerkship, respect to psychiatry increased, it was still less than respect for other specialties.
