Abstract

A study of the learning achieved by a small group of vocational trainees during the first six months of their year in general practice showed significant gains (p<0.001) in factual recall as measured by multiple choice questions.Changes were also observed in the answers to a repeated modified essay question test, suggesting that the same trainees were becoming more aware of emotional and social factors in their patients.

[To put one's femininity at stake. Admission of women to medical studies; Marie Spångberg and other pioneers].

In 1993, 100 years have passed since the first woman graduated in medicine from the University of Oslo. Her name was Marie Spångberg. A long-lasting "battle" had previously taken place to allow women to enter the University and to study medicine in particular. The first proposal to the Storting (the Norwegian national assembly) on this matter was made by Mr. L. Smitt, who strongly argued for the admittance of women to medical studies at the University. The Storting agreed, but the Medical Faculty protested violently in a note which was regarded as one of the most reactionary statements of the time on the nature of women. However, on 23 June 1884, an Act allowing women to graduate in all University studies was finally passed. In spite of the earlier resistance from the Medical Faculty, the female students did not experience any discrimination of women during their studies. They did meet difficulties, however, after their graduation, both in continuing their education and in obtaining a position.
