Abstract

A questionnaire survey has been undertaken to evaluate the specialist training in basic sciences in view of both specialist residents (SpRs) and trainers of two university medical schools in İzmir, Turkey. Seventy four SpRs (39 from Dokuz Eylül and 35 from Ege Universities) and 15 basic science units (8 from Dokuz Eylül and 7 from Ege Universities) were joined in this survey. The response rate was 73% for SpRs and 86.7% for basic science units. Technical equipments, the number of trainers, education programmes and training equipments of basic science units have been found adequate both by SpRs and trainers. However, professional education has been found incapable. In basic science units, it was seen that the SpRs are permanently assessed and attended the investigation activities during educational process. The trainers expressed that the SpRs have got training knowledge, skills and attitute sufficiently, but SpRs answered that they have got them in moderate means. In conclusion, although the training programmes of SpRs in both of the university hospitals have been found competent, SpRs indicated that there is a need for development of trainers quality, assessing methods and rotational education programmes in basic science.
