Abstract

Abstract

Objective To investigate the research thinking, paper writing and publication status, writing challenges, and guidance expectations of clinical medicine postgraduate students, with the goal of optimizing the teaching model for postgraduate research courses. Methods A questionnaire survey method was conducted in April 2023 among full-time clinical medicine postgraduate students at Guangxi Medical University, covering six areas: basic information, research thinking, paper writing and publication status, challenges in writing and publishing, course availability, and students' expectations. SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results A total of 2 142 valid questionnaires were collected. The proportion of doctoral students who have presided over graduate innovation projects is significantly higher than that of masters. Few students questioned the literature or professional guidelines they read, actively engaged in academic discussions. The proportion of doctoral students who published papers in international journals was significantly higher than that of master' s students. Most postgraduate students reported difficulties in reading international journal papers, literature extraction and summary, literature searches, application of scientific research tools, and analysis of scientific research data. The main reasons in topic selection included a lack of understanding of subject trends, unclear interests, and difficulty identifying scientific problems. The proportion of postgraduate students who had received training in scientific research thinking and writing was low, and online videos were considered as the most helpful teaching mode. The three most anticipated training topes were scientific research thinking, the design of research methods and experiments, and the selection of journals. Conclusion The difficulty in topic selection is high, paper publication is low, and the scientific research ability is poor. It is suggested to set up standardized scientific research thinking training and writing guidance, gradually fostering scientific research thinking of postgraduate students, and improving the training system of postgraduate research ability.
