Camera-Related Behaviors during Video Recorded Medical Interactions

Video recording provides an objective record of the content of medical interactions. However, there is concern that cameras may be reactive measurement devices that alter what normally transpires during interactions. This study addressed potential reactivity of cameras in medical interactions. Interactions between 45 patients and 14 medical oncologists were video recorded and coded for camera-related behaviors. Eleven of 45 patients performed none of the behaviors. Among the other patients, camera-related behaviors were infrequent and, on average, constituted about 0.1% (one-tenth of one percent) of total interaction time. Behaviors occurred most often in very early stages of interactions, and when physicians were absent from the room. Seven physicians showed camera-related behaviors, comprising less than 0.1% of the time they were in the interaction. Results suggest video recording can provide nonreactive means of studying medical interactions.

Using the Delphi Method to Classify Medical Specialties

One medical specialty classification system applicable for research and career counseling is the person‐oriented versus technique‐oriented taxonomy. Given that the model was conceptualized in the 1960s, verification based on how medical specialties are practiced and viewed today is necessary. Five specialists in medical career development and advising verified the categorization of specialties. Based on their review, 100% consensus was reached regarding grouping of specialties. This outcome validates the taxonomy of medical specialties and supports its continued use for medical career specialty advising and choice.     

马克思主义关于人的全面发展理论及对研究生思想政治教育的启示

马克思主义关于人的全面发展理论包括人的需要满足、人的能力提高、人的主体性发展和人的社会关系丰富等方面。当前,研究生教育存在重视专业学习而忽视思想政治教育的现象,其思想政治教育也存在着主体性欠缺、方式单一的弊端。以马克思主义关于人的全面发展理论为指导,加强对研究生思想政治教育,促进其全面发展;坚持以人为本,提高亲和力;尊重教育对象的个性,增强针对性;立足人的社会性,为和谐社会建设添砖加瓦。     

研究生创业的现实需求和实现途径

随着我国研究生招生数量不断增多,研究生待就业人数的增大,研究生就业问题也日益引起社会的关注.创业作为有效提升就业率的重要方法,却没有在研究生中得到普遍的推行.究其原因,一方面是研究生自身的因素掣肘,另一方面则是研究生创业教育的缺失所致.因此,探索研究生创业的现实需求和实现途径,分析研究生创业的现状、必要性,找寻研究生创业的有效途径,对于提升研究生创业意识、推动研究生顺利就业、实现研究生的社会价值和人生价值有着重要的意义.

中国医疗改革：道德与正义的考量

我国医疗体制改革是在中国农村和城市全面改革的大背景下进行的。中国改革取得成功的深层动因是允许个人功利的追求。这一背景也深刻影响到了医疗体制改革。医疗体制改革的重要趋向就是医院的市场化。市场化使得医院几乎成为单纯商业化运作的事业，因而市场正义成为医疗公正的取向。这是医疗改革失败的深层精神原因。走出这一困境就必须加大政府投入，使得医院从市场正义回归社会公平的正义；并在克服商业化倾向的同时，还需要有人道主义精神的重建。     

医疗纠纷可仲裁性的法理思考

在医患矛盾时常发生的今天，探求解决医疗纠纷的机制已经成为必要。针对医疗纠纷的可仲裁性展开法理分析，通过对国外医疗纠纷仲裁机制的考察，分析医疗纠纷仲裁的特殊功能，论证其可仲裁性，显得尤其重要。在我国立法现状的基础上，提出我国医疗纠纷可仲裁性采用一般模式的建议，具有一定的现实意义。     

锦州市区民营口腔医疗机构调查

目的：了解新医改背景下锦州市民营口腔医疗机构的资源状况。方法：通过调查问卷、现场采访等方式，以民营口腔医疗机构的负责人和口腔医生为调查对象，对锦州市区民营口腔医疗机构进行走访。结果：锦州市没有民营口腔医院，84个民营诊所拥有213台椅位，从业口腔专科医生186人。结论：个体诊所分布广泛，口腔业务量较大，占有一定市场份额；口腔诊所规模较小，医生素质偏低，专业化程度不高；民营口腔市场潜力较大，民营口腔机构也将成为口腔专业毕业生的一个重要就业渠道。

Children's response to the medical visit for allegations of sexual abuse: maternal perceptions and predicting variables

This study examined maternal perceptions of their child's response to the medical evaluation for alleged sexual abuse. A total of 50 mothers were interviewed 6 months after a visit to a Child Protection Clinic for a medical evaluation of alleged sexual abuse. The mothers answered a questionnaire on their child's reactions to the medical visit. More than 60% of children were perceived as being reassured about physical integrity. The degree of psychological distress was independent of perpetrator's identity and severity of the abuse. Mothers considered that a hypothetical second visit would generate in their child a level of anxiety that increased with perceived intensity of fear of the examination and decreased with perceived kindness of the physician. These results suggest that the physician's behaviour during the medical evaluation for alleged sexual abuse has an influence on the child's degree of distress that is independent of type and severity of abuse.
