title: Contrasting work environments of medical school faculty.
abstract: An attitude survey has revealed vividly contrasting institutional atmosphere and working conditions at U.S. medical schools. Environments at about one-fourth of the schools were judged to be highly positive with regard to subjective atmosphere, career development, and faculty-administration relations. Environments at another one-fourth of all schools were judged to be highly negative in all of these areas. Recognizing the existence of these differences is necessary before administrative remedies for many of the problems at the latter group of schools can be implemented.
