نوع مقاله : مقاله‌های پژوهشی

چکیده

مقدمه: این مطالعه با هدف تعیین نگرش دانشجویان دندان‌پزشکی اصفهان نسبت به رشته‌ی تحصیلی و آینده‌ی شغلی خود در سال ۱۳۹۹-۱۴۰۰ انجام شد.
مواد و روش‌ها: این مطالعه در بهار سال ۱۴۰۰ در دانشکده‌ی دندان‌پزشکی دانشگاه علوم پزشکی اصفهان انجام شد. در این مطالعه ۲۲۰ نفر از دانشجویان سال سوم و سال آخر دندان‌پزشکی شرکت کردند. از پرسش‌نامه‌ای پژوهشگرساخته جهت بررسی نگرش دانشجویان در دو حیطه‌ی رشته‌ی تحصیلی (۹ سؤال) و آینده‌‌ی شغلی (۱۱ سؤال) استفاده و پاسخ‌دهی به سؤالات توسط مقیاس لیکرت ۵ نمره‌ای انجام شد. نتایج با میانگین و انحراف معیار گزارش شد و جهت تحلیل داده‌ها نیز از آزمون T استفاده شد. سطح معنی‌داری در آنالیزها 0/05 در نظر گرفته ‌شد.
یافته‌ها: نمره‌ی نگرش به رشته‌ی تحصیلی 32/76 (5/18±) بود که بالاتر از حد متوسط است. همچنین نمره‌ی نگرش به آینده‌ی شغلی 29/89 (5/89±) بود که پایین‌تر از حد متوسط است. آزمون T نشان داد که در مورد میانگین نمره‌ی رشته‌ی تحصیلی تفاوت معنی‌داری بین دانشجویان سال سوم و سال آخر وجود دارد (0/02 p value < ) ولی میانگین نمره‌ی آینده‌ی شغلی فاقد تفاوت معنای‌دار است (0/093 p value < ).
نتیجه‌گیری: نگرش دانشجویان دندان‌پزشکی نسبت به رشته‌ی تحصیلی خود بالاتر از حد متوسط (مثبت) ولی نسبت به آینده‌ی شغلی خود پایین‌تر از حد متوسط بود که از جمله دلایل آن بروز نگرانی‌هایی مانند شرایط اقتصادی جامعه و افزایش پذیرش دانشجویان در مراکز متعدد دانشگاهی است که تأثیر منفی بر نگرش دانشجویان می‌گذارد.

Evaluating Dental Students’ Attitude Toward Their Field of Study and Future Career in Isfahan University of Medical Sciences in 2020-2021

چکیده [English]

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.
