RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: This study examined the relationship between personality traits and interpersonal communication skills among first-year orthopedic surgery residents. METHOD: This study performed a retrospective analysis on the data collected in the 2 phases among the 6 cohorts of first-year orthopedic surgery residents (n = 73) during a 6-year period at an urban academic medical hospital. Resident personality was assessed through self-report prior to entry into the program and included a total of 7 personality traits. These traits were broken down into 2 categories, day to day, or usual, tendencies, which measured personality traits when no stress was present and stress tendencies, which measured personality traits when stressed or fatigued. The "day to day" tendencies measured were Emotional Stability, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness and Openness) and "stress" tendencies measured were Excitable, Skeptical and Imaginative. Communication skills were measured across 4 specific dimensions of patient communication (Engage, Empathy, Educate, Enlist) in an Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). RESULTS: Multiple regression analyses showed that the personality traits identified as "stress" tendencies predicted performance on 2 of the 4 communication skills dimensions measured by the OSCE and accounted for up to 34.8% of the total variance in the ratings of empathic communication and up to 67.2% of the total variance in education-related communication. CONCLUSIONS: Our research identifies specific personality traits that affect resident communication skills related to patient education and empathy in simulated encounters. Three stress-related personality traits (Excitable, Skeptical, Imaginative) had a strong negative influence on communication skills, while day to day personality traits (Emotional Stability, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness) positively influenced communication skills.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to understand the personality characteristics of emergency medicine (EM) residents and assess consistency and variations among residency programs. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, a convenience sample of residents (N = 140) at five EM residency programs in the United States completed three personality assessments: the Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI)-describing usual tendencies; the Hogan Development Survey (HDS)-describing tendencies under stress or fatigue; and the Motives, Values, and Preferences Inventory (MVPI)-describing motivators. Differences between EM residents and a normative population of U.S. physicians were examined with one-sample t-tests. Differences between EM residents by program were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance tests. RESULTS: One-hundred forty (100%), 124 (88.6%), and 121 (86.4%) residents completed the HPI, HDS, and MVPI, respectively. For the HPI, residents scored lower than the norms on the adjustment, ambition, learning approach, inquisitive, and prudence scales. For the HDS, residents scored higher than the norms on the cautious, excitable, reserved, and leisurely scales, but lower on bold, diligent, and imaginative scales. For the MVPI, residents scored higher than the physician population norms on altruistic, hedonistic, and aesthetics scales, although lower on the security and tradition scales. Residents at the five programs were similar on 22 of 28 scales, differing on one of 11 scales of the HPI (interpersonal sensitivity), two of 11 scales of the HDS (leisurely, bold), and three of 10 scales of the MVPI (aesthetics, commerce, and recognition). CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that the personality characteristics of EM residents differ considerably from the norm for physicians, which may have implications for medical students' choice of specialty. Additionally, results indicated that EM residents at different programs are comparable in many areas, but moderate variation in personality characteristics exists. These results may help to inform future research incorporating personality assessment into the resident selection process and the training environment.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To understand the personality factors associated with orthopedic surgery resident performance. DESIGN: A prospective, cross-sectional survey of orthopedic surgery faculty that assessed their perceptions of the personality traits most highly associated with resident performance. Residents also completed a survey to determine their specific personality characteristics. A subset of faculty members rated the performance of those residents within their respective program on 5 dimensions. Multiple regression models tested the relationship between the set of resident personality measures and each aspect of performance; relative weights analyses were then performed to quantify the contribution of the individual personality measures to the total variance explained in each performance domain. Independent samples t-tests were conducted to examine differences between the personality characteristics of residents and those faculty identified as relevant to successful resident performance. SETTING: Data were collected from 12 orthopedic surgery residency programs1 throughout the United States. The level of clinical care provided by participating institutions varied. PARTICIPANTS: Data from 175 faculty members and 266 residents across 12 programs were analyzed. RESULTS: The personality features of residents were related to faculty evaluations of resident performance (for all, p < 0.01); the full set of personality measures accounted for 4%-11% of the variance in ratings of resident performance. Particularly, the characteristics of agreeableness, neuroticism, and learning approach were found to be most important for explaining resident performance. Additionally, there were significant differences between the personality features that faculty members identified as important for resident performance and the personality features that residents possessed. CONCLUSION: Personality assessments can predict orthopedic surgery resident performance. However, results suggest the traits that faculty members value or reward among residents could be different from the traits associated with improved resident performance.
