Time Trends in the Association of a Rural or Urban Background with Practice Location.
Becker, Phillip; And Others
Journal of Medical Education, v54 n7 p544-50 Jul 1979
The association of rural or urban background with choice of medical practice location was investigated in two time periods, 1950-1955 and 1963-1968, using the alumni of the Medical College of Wisconsin. High school location, place of birth, and place of internship were found to be significantly associated with practice location. (Author/JMD)
