Influence of Gender on Specialty Choices in a Brazilian Medical School.
Figueiredo, Jose Fernando de Castro; And Others
Academic Medicine, v72 n1 p68-70 Jan 1997
Specialty choices for medical school graduates of the University of Sao Paolo (Brazil) in 1975-84 and 1989-94 were analyzed by gender. Results showed women predominating in pediatrics and men in surgery and orthopedics in both periods, with no gender predominance in other specialties. Significant changes occurred in specialty choice patterns between men and women and between the two study periods. (Author/MSE)
