TI  - The problem student on clinical rotations: a comparison of Malaysian and North 
      American views.
PG  - 275-81
AB  - The purpose of this study is to explore the types of problem students that 
      clinical teachers encounter in clinical settings. A questionnaire developed by 
      the Association of American Medical Colleges that lists a variety of types of 
      problem students was completed by 466 clinicians at the University of Washington 
      School of Medicine (UWSOM) and 98 Malaysian clinicians from Universiti Kebangsaan 
      Malaysia (UKM) and Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM). In addition, 120 medical 
      students from UKM completed a slightly modified version of this questionnaire. 
      Both the faculty and student questionnaires asked the respondent to identify the 
      frequency of a given problem type. The faculty was also asked to estimate how 
      difficult it was to evaluate a specific problem. In general, there was strong 
      agreement among the North American and Malaysian faculty on the frequency and 
      difficulty of the 24 types of problem students listed. There were some notable 
      differences, such as Malaysian teachers perceiving the "shy" student more 
      frequently than their North American counterparts who rated the student with 
      deficits in knowledge more frequently. However, the overall similarity in the 
      rankings suggest that clinical teachers face similar types of problems, 
      independent of cultural differences and institutional differences.
