Abstract:
Objective:To establish selection criteria of community mentors for postgraduates in general medicine.Methods:A subject index system of selection criteria of community tutors for general practice postgraduates was drafted and refined based on literature retrieving and in-depth interviews during January to December 2020. Twenty experts in general practice related fields were invited for two rounds of Delphi consultation. Analytic hierarchy process was used to calculate index weight coefficient and consistency test; and the developed selection criteria were evaluated.Results:Through the in-depth interviews with 11 general practice faculty and 11 general practice postgraduates, the following five first-level thematic frameworks were refined: (1) the professional qualities; (2) the basic qualities; (3) the clinical ability; (4) the teaching ability; (5) the scientific research ability. After two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, the selection criteria of community tutors for postgraduates in general practice were finally constructed, including 5 first-level indicators (professional quality, basic quality, medical practice ability, teaching and guidance ability, academic research ability) and 28 second-level indicators. The positive coefficients of experts were 85% and 100%; the expert authority coefficients were 0.825 and 0.860; and the expert opinion coordination coefficients were 0.486 and 0.515, respectively (all P<0.05). the weight coefficients of the five first-level indicators were 0.345, 0.210, 0.138, 0.210 and 0.097, respectively. Conclusion:The criteria and index system on the selection of community mentors for general practice postgraduates has been successfully developed in the study.
