Likewise, there was no significant difference between men and women in our sample (males, M = 10.60; females, M= 10.94, F(912) p=.340).…”

“…It has subsequently been used for studies of dentists in India and found to be reliable.

Background: The present study aimed to examine the impact of "curricula for undergraduate education in oriental medicine (OM)/complementary and alternative medicine (CAM)" on student awareness of OM. A questionnaire survey was conducted involving the Nagasaki University School of Dentistry (NUSD), a university that implements education in OM as part of its undergraduate curriculum, and Tokyo Dental College (TDC), which does not teach OM. Materials and methods:The third-and fifth-year students of both NUSD and TDC underwent the anonymous questionnaire survey, which included questions regarding their knowledge of OM and CAM, interests in these subjects, and their opinions on the necessity of teaching OM in the undergraduate dental education, and the results were collected for analysis. Results: Whereas 33% of 5 th year NUSD students had knowledge of OM/CAM was 33%, only 10% of 5 th year TDC students reported knowledge on the subject. 69% of 5 th year NUSD students interested in OM/CAM, while 5 th year TDC students who interest them were only 45%. Although 77% of 5 th year NUSD students were in favor of OM education implemented in the Faculty of Dentistry, the percentages of TDC students of that were smaller (46% in 3
