Sažetak
Background: We took “ The Medical School Objective Project” established by AAMC, and published in Academic Medicine 1999, as a basis for the development of a questionnaire. It was a 5-point Likert scale questionnaire (1-not agree, 5-agree) with 30-items related to the four attributes of the physician: altruistic, knowledgeable, skillful and dutiful. Summary of work: The sample of 59 teachers came from two Croatian medical schools, 30 from Rijeka and 29 from Zagreb ; 26 are females, and with average age of 41.8 years. Summary of results: The teachers exhibited a great agreement with the suggested objectives in all attributes. Especially high agreement was found within the attribute of ethical responsibility (toward the patient 4.9, toward the patient’ s family 4.9). Less agreement was found within the attribute of dutifulness, objectives related to conflict of interest due to financial and organizational aspects of health care (4.2) and social responsibility of the future doctors (4.0). Conclusion: The results show that there are not big differences between AAMC experts and Croatian teachers in opinions on how future doctors should be prepared to meet society’ s expectations. Take-home message: We had also good experience in using the questionnaire as a tool to facilitate discussion about curriculum development within the teaching course “ Art of medical education” .
