GONZALEZ-LOPEZ, Montserrat; FAJARDO-DOLCI, Germán y HINCAPIE-SANCHEZ, Jennifer. Perception of abortion in first-year students of the Faculty of Medicine after the Human Embryology course. Gac. Méd. Méx [online]. 2023, vol.159, n.4, pp.303-308. Epub 25-Sep-2023. ISSN 2696-1288. https://doi.org/10.24875/gmm.23000095.
Background:
Multiple studies have been recorded regarding the perception of abortion among students in the health area.
Objective:
To know if medical-scientific training is sufficient to generate a change in the perception of first-year students of the National Autonomous University of Mexico Faculty of Medicine.
Material and methods:
A cross-sectional survey was applied in two times, with the level of relationship between the items of each dimension being analyzed using Cramer's V test. The results were compared to analyze if there was a change in the perception of abortion after the human embryology course.
Results:
With an initial population of 2,150 students, 393 pre-course and 394 post-course surveys were conducted. The results indicated that despite the existence of changes in the perception of Faculty of Medicine students with regard to abortion, they are not significant.
Conclusions:
The medical-scientific training provided by the human embryology course is not enough to provide foundations to the perception of students on issues such as abortion or conscientious objection.
