Abstract
The integral part in the system of healthcare workforce education is determining the quality index of the specialists' training and analysis of educational achievements of students. Aim. To evaluate academic performance of undergraduate and postgraduate students, interns and fellows at the Danylo Halytsky National Medical University in Lviv. To study the influence of diverse factors on the outcomes of the final attestation, and work out regressive models concerning the results of the final attestation of the students, interns and fellows of each of the specialties. Materials and Methods. The study was carried out among the interns at the Danylo Halytsky National Medical University in Lviv who underwent the final state attestation in 2018, in regard with the following criteria: the results of the licenced exams "Step-1 (Krok-1)", "Step-2 (Krok-2)", "Step-3 (Krok-3)"; the mean grade received for the state exams, and the results of the final attestation. The statistical analysis was performed by means of multiple correlative-regressive analysis. Adequacy and reliability of the obtained statistical models were evaluated using Fisher criterion. Results and Discussion. In the course of the study, it was established that the highest results of the licenced exams "Step-1", " Step-3", the state exams, and the final attestation were achieved by the interns in specialty "Emergency medicine"; the interns in specialty "Internal medicine" demonstrated the highest scores of the exam "Step-2". The lowest results of the licenced exams "Step-1" and "Step-2" were registered in the interns inspecialty "Pediatrics"; similar results of the \exam "Step-3", state exams, and the final attestation were achieved by the interns in specialty "Dentistry". A direct correlation between the results of the licenced exams "Step-1", "Step-2", and "Step-3", state exams, and the final attestation among the interns of all specialties of the LNMU in 2018 (р<0,05) was substantiated. Conclusions. The most influential factor in predicting the results of the final attestation are the results of "Step-3"; the second prediction factor is the mean grade of the state exams. Mathematical prediction of the results of the final attestation has important practical implications , because it assists with timely identification ofof the group of interns with high risks of failure and subsequent early intensifying of their academic activities. Key words: undergraduate and postgraduate education, interns, licenced exam, result of the final attestation
