Abstract:
Objective:To understand the current situation of physicians′ innovative behavior and its influencing factors in Beijing municipal hospitals, for reference in improving their innovation ability and encouraging high-quality development of public hospitals.Methods:A stratified sampling was conducted with 22 practicing (assistant) physicians in Beijing municipal hospitals as subjects. From October to November 2022, a questionnaire survey was conducted to understand the innovative behavior, innovative self-efficacy and innovative atmosphere of such practicing (assistant) physicians. SPSS 25.0 was used for descriptive analysis of the data, while t-test, variance analysis and linear regression were used for univariate analysis. Furthermore, multiple linear regression was adopted to explore the influencing factors of innovative behavior of such practicing(assistant) physicians. Results:A total of 2 178 questionnaires were distributed in this study, and 1 906 valid ones were recovered, with effective recovery of 87.51%. Scores of innovative behavior, innovative self-efficacy and innovative atmosphere of 1 906 practicing (assistant) physicians scored (4.00±0.70) points, (3.85±0.74) points and (3.98±0.66) points respectively. The results of univariate analysis showed scores of statistical significance regarding the innovative behavior of practicing (assistant) physicians with different marital status, educational background, professional title, position, department type, innovative self-efficacy level and innovative atmosphere level. Multiple linear regression results showed that position, innovation self-efficacy score, innovation atmosphere score and subordinates′ incentive mechanism, as well as teamwork and resource security had statistical significance on innovation behavior score.Conclusions:The practicing (assistant) physicians in Beijing municipal hospitals are highly enthusiastic for innovation, but their innovative behavior is expected to be upgraded. In this regard, public hospitals should improve their innovation incentive mechanism, strengthen resource assurance, encourage cooperation and exchange, and create a desirable atmosphere for innovation. Furthermore, greater supply of continuing education resources is expected, supporting these physicians in their further study, advanced education, and promotion of professional titles.
