Abstract BackgroundInter-professional collaboration (IPC) is an important prerequisite for successful patient care. Even though inter-professional education (IPE) is increasingly common in undergraduate medical education, few IPE approaches explicitly address the IPC among medical students and students of psychology. IPE videos can be used to give learners the opportunity to gather relevant knowledge from different professional perspectives. So far it has been unclear whether it is enough when the topic of the video itself is inter-professional or if it is necessary for experts from different professions explicitly to appear in the video.MethodsIn an online experiment, medical students watched one of two videos about Parkinson’s disease (PD) and the care of PD patients. The information was either provided by protagonists from only one profession (i.e., physicians; mono-professional condition) or provided by protagonists from two different professions (i.e., physicians and a psychologist; inter-professional condition). Attitude toward inter-professional interaction and learning, evaluation of the entertaining and illustrative character of the video, attitude toward physicians and psychologists, importance of IPC, evaluation of psychological treatment support, and knowledge acquisition served as dependent variables.ResultsThe analysis was based on 140 participants (74 in the mono-, 66 in the inter-professional condition). We found that the inter-professional video was perceived to be more entertaining than the mono-professional video (t(138) = -2.227; p = 0.028; d= 0.38). The inter-professional video was also considered to be more illustrative (t(138) = -6.269; p < 0.001; d= 1.06). Moreover, participants improved their attitude toward physicians by watching the video (F(1, 138) = 4.860, p < 0.001, η2p = 0.11), but they did not change their attitude toward psychologists (p = 0.146). Participants who watched the inter-professional video considered IPC to be more important than participants who watched the mono-professional video (t(138) = -7.954; p < 0.001; d= 1.354). Finally, the inter-professional video led to better performance in the knowledge test (t(138) = -2.285; p = 0.024; d= 0.04).ConclusionsInter-professional videos showing explicitly the appearance of experts from different professions come along with several advantages.

Background: Inter-professional collaboration (IPC) is an important prerequisite for successful patient care. Even though inter-professional education (IPE) is increasingly common in undergraduate medical education, few IPE approaches explicitly address the IPC among medical students and students of psychology. IPE videos can be used to give learners the opportunity to gather relevant knowledge from different professional perspectives. So far it has been unclear whether it is enough when the topic of the video itself is inter-professional or if it is necessary for experts from different professions explicitly to appear in the video. Methods: In an online experiment, medical students watched 1 of 2 videos about Parkinson’s disease (PD) and the care of PD patients. The information was either provided by protagonists from only 1 profession (ie, physicians; mono-professional condition) or provided by protagonists from 2 different professions (ie, physicians and a psychologist; inter-professional condition). Attitude toward inter-professional interaction and learning, evaluation of the entertaining and illustrative character of the video, attitude toward physicians and psychologists, importance of IPC, evaluation of psychological treatment support, and knowledge acquisition served as dependent variables. Results: The analysis was based on 140 participants (74 in the mono-, 66 in the inter-professional condition). We found that the inter-professional video was perceived to be more entertaining than the mono-professional video ( t(138) = −2.227; P = .028; d = 0.38). The inter-professional video was also considered to be more illustrative ( t(138) = −6.269; P < .001; d = 1.06). Moreover, participants improved their attitude toward physicians by watching the video ( F(1,138) = 4.860, P < .001, η2 p = 0.11), but they did not change their attitude toward psychologists ( P = .146). Participants who watched the inter-professional video considered IPC to be more important than participants who watched the mono-professional video ( t(138) = −7.954; P < .001; d = 1.354). Finally, the inter-professional video led to better performance in the knowledge test ( t(138) = −2.285; P = .024; d = 0.04). Conclusion: Inter-professional videos showing explicitly the appearance of experts from different professions come along with several advantages.

Interviewing Techniques

Paraprofessionals and videotape were used to improve the interpersonal interviewing skills of medical students. Training improved rapport building, questioning skills, and interviewing techniques as assessed by students, paraprofessionals, and medical students. As rapport is influenced by complexity of the medical history, a greater focus on psychosocial factors in professional education is needed.

Attitude Measures

Beginning medical and nursing students with no professional death-related experience were compared in order to discover the attitudes they bring to their respective careers prior to their professional education and socialization. Hypotheses were derived from psychological models for the effects of professional choice, gender, and non-professional experience on these attitudes. On five of the six attitude measures female nursing students expressed a more positive attitude than cither male or female medical students, as predicted. However, contrary to expectation, the attitudes of the female medical students were not more positive than those of the male medical students on any of these measures. Hours of death-and-dying coursework and general life experience exerted a significant influence on attitudes toward talking to dying patients about death and dying but not on any of the other attitude measures. These data also suggest the existence of an underlying attitude structure, representing these students' Overall Attitude toward caring for dying patients, which remains stable across group differences in professional career choice, gender, and death-related experience. The original theoretical models were enriched and revised in the light of these findings.

ABSTRACT Introduction: The practice of hazing is a phenomenon that began in the Middle Ages and persists in many universities around the world. In Brazil, although the problem is widely recognized, it has been insufficiently studied. Objective: To estimate the prevalence and to identify factors associated with the occurrence of hazing in a public Medical School, located in the interior of the State of São Paulo, Brazil. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted, including 477 medical students from the first to the sixth year of the course. The self-reporting questionnaire included questions and structured instruments to access: socio-demographic and academic life characteristics, social support, symptoms of depression, harmful alcohol use (using the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test — Audit), common mental disorder (using the Self-Reporting Questionnaire — SRQ) and if the participant had suffered any form of hazing that he/she considered abusive or if the participant had practiced hazing about which he/she felt guilty or regretful afterwards. Bivariate analyses and logistic regression were conducted to identify factors independently associated with each of the outcomes (having suffered abusive hazing or having participated in hazing and feeling regretful afterwards). Results: The response rate was 87.0%. Among the students, 39.8% (95% Cl: 35.4% — 44.2%) reported having suffered abusive hazing, while 7.5% (95% CI: 5.2% — 9.9%) reported having practiced hazing of which they repented. Being subjected to abusive hazing was associated with: male gender, not being adapted to the city, presenting lower scores on the social support scale and psychiatric and/or psychological treatment after admission to university. Having practiced hazing, in turn, was associated with male gender, older age and higher score in the Audit. Conclusion: Hazing was associated with male gender, and with the pursuit of mental health treatment among those who received it and with harmful alcohol use among the perpetrators. It is essential that medical schools discuss and better understand the problem of hazing in order to adopt effective preventive measures.

Improving Student Learning

Fostering higher-order thinking skills of students is important aim for 21st century education. Teachers, as important elements in a positive learning environment, are the key to high quality education. As for the importance of teacher professional collaboration in teacher development, Hargreaves and Fullan (2012) pointed out that teachers’ professional collaboration will benefit not only students but also the whole school community, and even society at large. In Chinese context, the Ministry of Education of the People’s Republic of China (2010) issued a policy in 2010 promoting teacher professional collaboration and development as a background of this study, implying that teachers must be collaborating actively with colleagues in daily professional life to achieve collective growth for the purpose of improving student learning.Based on the policy reality, this study explored teacher professional collaboration in the Chinese education context. It looked in particular at practices and issues in teacher professional collaboration. This article begins with the definitions of teacher professional collaboration, followed by a detailed exploration of this type of collaboration in Chinese education and issues related to its implementation. This study will provide holistic picture of teacher collaboration in China for contributing to theoretical development and educational practice.

Stable reproduction of resources in the labor market, as well as their  adaptation to current trends, largely depend on the awareness  of potential employees of their capabilities and prospects. Such views are formed already at the initial stages of mastering the  profession - in obtaining higher education. These representations are  an important indicator especially in the context of the  transformation of the higher education system, in particular in  connection with the updated GEF HE. In this article, the authors  consider approaches to studying the youth labor market and focus  their attention on issues of professional self-determination and  gaining experience in labor activity. Based on the focus group study,  the authors disclose the expectations and self-assessments of  students regarding their professional prospects in the labor market. Researchers identify specific features of selfassessment of  professional perspectives depending on the course of study, on the  level of professional education and other factors. As it turned out,  undergrads tend to assess the degree of their readiness to enter the  labor market rather high, but nevertheless feel undefined. According  to the students, frequent short-term internships in specific  enterprises could increase their confidence and expand the prospects  for successful employment. At the same time, students  are more focused on working in specific organizations than actually  on professional self-actualization.
