Background and Objective: Professional commitment is considered a set of behaviors that establishes trust and confidence in interactions between doctors, patients, and society. This study aimed to investigate professional commitment in medical students during their internship at Shahrood University of Medical Sciences.
Methods: This descriptive-analytical study was conducted using a census method on medical intern students in the academic year 2023-2024. Data were collected using a demographic information checklist and a questionnaire by Klikman and Henning et al. After collection, the data were entered into SPSS18 and analyzed using descriptive-analytical statistics.
Findings: In this study, a total of 93 people participated in the study, with an average age of 26.06±1.73 years, with most participants being male (58.1%), single (78.5%), non-native (71%), father's education above diploma (74.2%), mother's education above diploma (57%), father's job in government (52.7%), mother's job as a housewife (60.2%), residence in dormitory (46.2%), entry quota in region two (44.1%), and average economic status (74.2%). Also, there was no significant relationship between residence (0.842) and university entry quota (0.685) with professional commitment, while there was a significant relationship with the other variables. Also, most of the participating students had a high professional commitment score (76.3).
Conclusions: Given that the professional commitment score is high, planning to maintain and improve the conditions is essential. |
