摘要
目的调查高校医学类专业学生的统计学态度现状,探讨其影响因素,并分析统计学态度与统计学课程成绩的相关性,为探索教学改革方向和提升教学效果提供科学依据。方法以教育部直属某综合性大学医学院2018~2019学年开设医学统计学的学生为研究对象,使用汉化版的统计学态度调查量表(SATS-36)作为测量工具,量表各条目均以Likert 7分法计分,得分越高代表态度越积极。通过问卷星平台进行在线调查,调查结果采用SPSS软件进行统计分析。结果共有776名学生完成调查,总量表条目均分为4.84±0.64;分维度统计,努力程度得分最高(6.41±0.85),其次是价值判断(5.93±0.88),得分最低的维度为难度评价(2.73±0.77);性别、学历层次、专业和数学背景是影响统计学态度的主要因素,量表得分男生高于女生,研究生高于本科生,临床专业和公共卫生/卫生管理专业高于其他专业;数学成绩自评等级越高者统计学态度越积极;课程成绩与统计学态度呈正相关,但相关程度属弱相关(Spearman相关系数为0.227,P<0.001)。结论医学生的统计学态度属中等偏上积极性,尤其在努力程度和价值判断方面,积极性最高,但存在明显的畏难情绪;态度积极性与统计学课程成绩呈正相关。进行医学统计学教学时,应针对不同性别、不同专业和不同层次医学生的学习障碍,采取不同的应对措施,改革教学方法,以达到帮助学生提高积极性进而提高学业成绩的目的。
Objective To investigate medical students’attitudes toward statistics,explore the influencing factors,and to explore the correlation between attitudes and course performance,so as to provide reference for teaching reform and to improve teaching effect.Methods Medical students registered for medical statistics during the academic year of 2018-2019 in a comprehensive university were surveyed with the Chinese version of Scale of Attitudes Toward Statistics(SATS-36).The items in the scale were scored with Likert 7-point method.Higher scores meant more positive attitude.The data were collected with online questionnaire and analyzed with SPSS 25.0 software.Results A total of 776 students completed the survey,and the mean score of scale was 4.84±0.64.The mean score of effort dimension(6.41±0.85)was the highest,followed by the dimension of value(5.93±0.88),and the dimension of difficulty had the lowest mean score(2.73±0.77).Gender,education level,major and self-evaluation of mathematical ability influenced students’attitudes toward statistics.Male students had more positive attitudes than female students,and postgraduates were more positive than undergraduates.Students who majored in public health or clinical medicine were more positive than students in other majors.Higher self-evaluation of mathematical ability was associated with more positive attitude.There was a positive correlation between course performance and attitudes,but the correlation was weak(Spearman correlation coefficient was 0.227,P<0.001).Conclusion Medical students’attitudes toward statistics were fairly positive,especially in terms of effort and value dimensions.However,statistics was widely considered difficult.The attitudes were positively correlated with course performance.In the teaching process of medical statistics,teachers should pay more attention to students’emotion and cater to students’individual needs.
