Results of univariate and multivariate analysis in the surgeon's group for the four main themes: human and moral characteristics, technical surgical skills, non-technical skills, and medical knowledge. The following variables were analyzed: age, sex, main activity.

p < 0.05*, p < 0.01**, p < 0.001***. Yo, years old. Bold values are statistically significant values, with p < 0.05.
