A Predictive Model of Student Satisfaction with the Medical School Learning Environment.
Robins, Lynne S.; And Others
Academic Medicine, v72 n2 p134-39 Feb 1997
Study of 430 University of Michigan first-year medical students' satisfaction with their learning environment resulted in a predictive model using gender and minority group (excluding Asians) status. Results suggest curriculum structure and students' perceptions of faculty priorities are prominent predictors of student satisfaction across subgroups. However, student perceptions of the environment as comfortable for all subgroups did discriminate among subgroups. (Author/MSE)
