Investigation on the status quo of research ability of joint surgeons and analysis of influencing factors / 中华医学科研管理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the status quo of joint surgeons' research level,explore possible influence factors for their research capacity.Methods A total of 140 joint surgeons from third grade hospital andsecondary hospital in Beijing were selected.The self-rating scale of scientific research was used for evaluation.Subjects were divided into two groups according to the high and low level of scientific research ability.In the middle and low level group,factors including age,working years,job title,education level,training opportunities,team situation,research activity time,hospital level,and job satisfaction were analyzed.Results The total scores of the research subject were distributed from 12 to 115,with a median of 69.5 (40～90).The four dimensions,accounted from low to high were statistical knowledge,software operation,scientific research basis and thesis writing.According to the single factor analysis,age,education level,chance of training,presence or absence of team,time of scientific research activities,hospital level,satisfaction with work were related to the level of scientific research capacity of joint surgeons (P＜0.05);multiple regression results shows that the impact level of scientific research,from large to small,is whether there are scientific research teams,job satisfaction,and time for scientific research activities.These three factors can explain the change of scientific research ability by 60.5％ (R2 =0.605).Conclusions The joint surgeon's research capacity is at a relatively high level,while the statistical knowledge and software operation scores are low,which calls for more study and mastery.Increasing the construction of scientific research teams,improving job satisfaction,and increasing the time for scientific research activities can improve the scientific research capacity.
