Academic Medicine, v67 n4 p260-66 Apr 1992

A Johns Hopkins University (Maryland) medical college substance abuse education program was evaluated by nine annual student surveys (n=892 students). Significant improvements were found in student attitudes, beliefs in role responsibility, and confidence in skills during preclinical years. Clinical programs emphasizing substance abuse increased and sustained gains. Instructional implications are discussed. (Author/MSE)
