Abstract
Objective: to compare the satisfaction level in the academic working environments (AWE) between the residents of two training primary care units.
Methods: observational, transversal and comparative study. A previously constructed and validated instrument was applied, it included 30 items that evaluated the AWE with the following indicators: support, satisfaction, participation and respect; the reliability index’s instrument was high (Cronbach’s alpha is 0.88). The statistical analysis was made with the Mann-Withney U test, and χ2 test for proportions.
Results: regarding the AWE, 4.28 % of the residents obtained a really inappropriate environment; 8.57 % very appropriate and 14 % inappropriate environment. However the 72 % was between intermediate environments. No statistical significant difference was found between the three measurements.
Conclusions: our results are consistent with other national studies results where the “respect” indicator was the one with higher rank. The environment along with “participation”, and “support”, creates a favorable relationship among residents, teachers and the staff. However, the “imposition” and “rigidity” produces a decrease in the collective
