“…This finding is consistent with those of previous studies, 3,14,19 highlighting the challenge primary care programs face to meet ACGME scholarly activity requirements and to provide adequate research mentorship. 1,3 For primary care-rich institutions like ours, these results suggest that an efficient GME research program focuses on building research capacity in primary care programs.…”

Context: Graduate medical education (GME) programs must develop curriculum to ensure scholarly activity among trainees and faculty to meet accreditation requirements and to support evidence-based medicine.Objective: Test whether research-related needs and interests varied across four groups: primary care trainees, specialty trainees, primary care faculty, and specialty faculty.Design: We surveyed a random sample of trainees and faculty in Kaiser Permanente Southern California's GME programs. We investigated group differences in outcomes using Fisher exact and Kruskal-Wallis tests.Main Outcome Measures: Research experiences, skills, barriers, motivators, and interests in specific research skills development.Results: Participants included 47 trainees and 26 faculty (response rate = 30%). Among primary care faculty, 12 (71%) reported little or no research experience vs 1 (11%) for specialty faculty, 14 (41%) for primary care trainees, and 1 (8%) for specialty trainees (p < 0.001). Submission of research to the institutional review board, an abstract to a conference, or a manuscript for publication in the previous year varied across groups (p = 0.001, p = 0.003, and p < 0.001, respectively). Overall self-reported research skills also differed across groups (p < 0.001). Primary care faculty reported the lowest skill level. Research barriers that differed across groups included other work roles taking priority; desire for work-life balance; and lack of managerial support, research equipment, administrative support, and funding.Conclusion: Faculty and trainees in primary care and specialties have differing research-related needs that GME programs should consider when designing curricula to support scholarly activity. Developing research skills of primary care faculty is a priority to support trainees' scholarly activity.

“…6 Burdens include shortage of time, high practice volume, insufficient training in research techniques, and obstacles posed by stringent institutional review board regulations. 3 Similar barriers exist for physician support staff. 4 Support for general PBRN participant growth and research acculturation, such as meetings and workshops, has also been recognized as an important contributor to network success.…”

Objective: To study the effect of two compensation approaches, continuing medical education (CME) credits (5 hours) or monetary ($150), on the participation rate of a physician needs assessment study.Methods: Physicians representing family medicine, internal medicine, pediatric, and geriatrics specialties, and practicing in ambulatory primary care clinics affiliated with the North Texas Primary Care (NorTex) PBRN clinics, were recruited to complete a survey relevant to their subspecialty and to conduct a self-audit/abstraction of five medical records. Physicians were recruited from four health care systems, and the recruiting methods varied by system. Study outcome was the rate of study completion by type of incentive.Results: One hundred five of 211 (49.8%) physicians approached to participate gave consent and 84 (39.8%) completed the study. There was no difference in the number of physicians randomly assigned to monetary compared with CME compensation for giving consent to participate (adjusted odds ratio ‫؍‬
