The impact of role modelling on the future general practitioner workforce: a systematic review

Abstract: Role modelling has been identified as an important phenomenon in medical education. Key reports have highlighted the ability of role modelling to support medical students towards careers in family medicine although the literature of specific relevance to role modelling in speciality has not been systematically explored. This systematic review aimed to fill this evidence gap by assimilating the worldwide literature on the impact of role modelling on the future general practitioner (GP) workforce.

“…In order to fill this evidence gap, a research team from Newcastle upon Tyne in the UK synthesised findings from 46 studies in their systematic review. 4 They identify the powerful impact of denigration of general practice from role models in both primary and secondary care, and the perceived lack of intellectual challenge and research opportunities in the specialty. They also highlight the importance of students being exposed to GP role models, ideally through high-quality, longitudinal placements.…”
