Öz:
Amaç: Günümüzde kampüslerdeki tıp öğrencilerinin profili değişmektedir ve kişilik tiplerinde ve öğrenme stili tercihlerindeki varyasyonlar dikkate alınmalıdır. Bu çalışmada Gazi Üniversitesi tıp öğrencilerinin öğrenme stillerini ve öğrencilerin kişilik tipleri, öğrenme stilleri ve tıpta uzmanlık tercihleri arasında herhangi bir ilişki olup olmadığını belirlemek amaçlanmıştır. Yöntemler: Çalışma 2011-2012 akademik yılında Gazi Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesinde 170 (%96.6) son sınıf öğrencisi ile yapılmıştır. Yazarlar kişilik özelliklerini belirlemek için Myers-Briggs Kişilik Ölçeği (MBKÖ) ve öğrenme stililini ortaya çıkarmak için Grasha Riechmann Öğrenci Öğrenme Stili Ölçeği (GRÖÖSÖ) kullanmışlardır. Bulgular: Araştırma sırasında yakın gelecekte öğrencilerin %91.8i uzman ve %4.1i genel pratisyen olmak istediklerini açıklamışlardır. Tüm grupta en çok tercih edilen uzmanlık dermatoloji (%11.2) olarak gözükmektedir. Uzman olmak isteyen kız öğrencilerin tercihleri dermatoloji, oftalmoloji ve kadın doğumdur dağılımlar sırasıyla %22.8, %13.0 ve %9.8dir (p<0.05). Tercih edilen tüm uzmanlık alanlarında en sık kişilik tipi İçe Dönük-Duyusal- Düşünme-Yargılama (İDDY) dır. İDDY kişilik tipi olan öğrencilerin işbirlikli ve yarışmacı öğrenme stili puanları daha yüksektir. Sonuç: Birçok uzmanlık tercihinde son sınıf tıp öğrencileri İDDY kişilik tipi ile karakterizedir. Ayrıca bu öğrenciler işbirlikli ve yarışmacı öğrenme stiline sahiptir.

Objective: Medical student profile is changing on campuses today and there is a much greater variation in the range of personality type and learning style preferences to be considered. In this study it is aimed to determine the learning styles of medical school students at Gazi University and to find out whether there is any relationship between students personality types, learning style preferences and their medical specialty choices. Methods: The study was conducted on 170 final year students (96.6%) at the Gazi University School of Medicine in the 2011-2012 academic year. The authors used Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) to determine the personality traits and Grasha Riechmann Student Learning Style Scale (GRSLSS) to establish the learning styles. Results: During the study, 91.8% of the students declared that they wanted to be a specialist and 4.1% wanted to be a general practitioner in the near future. Most preferred specialty appeared to be dermatology (11.2%) in whole group. Choices of female students who want to be a specialist were dermatology, ophthalmology and obstetrics and gynecology and their distributions were 22.8%, 13.0% and 9.8%, respectively (p<0.05). The most common personality type in all preferred specialty areas was Introverted Sensing Thinking Judging (ISTJ). The students with ISTJ personality type had a higher score on the collaborative and competitive learning style. Conclusion: Last-year medical students are characterized by a ISTJ personality type in most of the medical specialty preferences. Furthermore, these students have collaborative and competitive learning styles.
