Medical Student Survey Data on Pre-Medical Scribing Impact, 244 Participants

244 first- and second-year medical students participated in a 2020 survey assessing the impact of pre-medical scribing and assisting. The data includes responses to a researcher-designed survey and a standardized Professional Self Identity Questionnaire (PSIQ). Academic performance metrics were analyzed but are not included in the shared data.

Use Cases

• Analyze correlations between pre-medical scribing experience and self-reported confidence and competency based on survey responses.
• Study professional identity formation in medical students based on PSIQ survey results.
• Compare perceptions of preparedness between students with and without clinical exposure prior to medical school.
• Explore qualitative insights on professional development from open-ended survey responses and focus groups.

Strengths

• 244 survey participants from three campuses of a multi-campus medical school.
• Combines researcher-designed survey data with a standardized professional identity questionnaire (PSIQ).
• Includes qualitative reflections from open-ended responses and focus groups.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Academic performance data (test scores, course evaluations) were analyzed but are not included in the shared data.
• Row count for the shared survey data is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
