title: [The merit profile--an instrument for the evaluation of academic achievement].
abstract: The concept of a merit profile has been evolved at Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, whereby not only research achievements but also teaching, administrative and clinical skills and experience are each given merit ratings to produce an individual profile. This approach is based on the notion that all of these fields of activity constitute integregal facets of a scat of higher learning in medicine, and that a candidate's relative merits in each of these areas should be seen not only in relation to the overall academic goals but also to practical, professional considerations. The merit profile is intended to be used in selection for appointments and promotion, and as a basis for the continued enhancement of individual competence, and salary review.
