Abstract

To help improve on methods of measuring the quality of training programmes for general practice, postal questionnaires were used to collect data from trainees and teaching practices in three selected areas, Oxford (Region), North of England (Tyneside and Teesside), and Scotland (West of Scotland, Dundee, and Edinburgh). This paper reports mainly trainee responses since much of the material from teachers was similar to that reported earlier. Some results were presented at the second National Conference of Trainee General Practitioners in Edinburgh in 1974. In principle comment on regional differences is restricted to those found to be statistically significant at the conventional 5% level.
