Pearson Correlation Coefficients Between Resident Wellness Scale and Learning Environment Items (Fall 2018)

Learning Environment Item
Resident Wellness Scale Item I often hesitate to express my opinions and ideas to faculty or my Program Director. Resident complaints are responded to with meaningful action. Faculty are reserved and distant with residents. Faculty, administrators, and staff give personal help to residents having academic difficulty. Upper-level residents provide support and guidance to junior residents. My program fosters an environment of mutual trust and respect among residents, faculty, patients, nurses, and staff.
