NOTES: Adjusted by multivariate analysis of variance to control for differences due to academic ranks, years in profession, sex, total research funding, or clinical department Standard errors are in parentheses.
We asked, “About how much time do you spend in a typical work week in all teaching activities at your institution: include your instruction of students, residents, interns and fellows, in all clinical, laboratory, and classroom settings.”
We asked, “About how much time do you spend in a typical workweek in all research activities at your institution: include all time spent writing proposals, papers, and reports, time spent planning and executing projects, time spent reviewing articles, and any laboratory time.”
Calculated for clinical faculty only. We asked, “About how much time do you spend in a typical work week in direct patient care services: include all time you spend directly related to patient care. patient record keeping, patient related office work, travel time connected with seeing patients.
