Comparison of turnover issues among female physicians by generation / 医学教育

ABSTRACT

1) Physicians who graduated from medical school less than 5 years earlier hoped that they could be satisfied with both their work and private life. They considered the choosing of a specialty suited to their lifestyle to be a strategy for continuing to work.Previous studies have suggested that this idea is specific to this generation.<br>2) Physicians who had graduated more than 31 years earlier had entered a medical university at a time when female students were rare; they continued to work with the belief that they must work hard so that female physicians could be seen to be actively employed. However, some of them had regrets about working continuously or child rearing.<br>3) The problems that female physicians faced concerning gender discrimination, child birth, and child rearing were common among both age groups.
