Finally, the obtained data was fed into SPSS (V :11.5) software and and was analyzed using independent T-test at the significant level of α=0.05.
Results
The medical graduates’ attitude scores in the three domains of diagnosis, treatment, and prescription were 3.2.±0.27 , 3.21±0.30, and 3.06±0.37; and those of medical interns were 3.44±0.58 ,3.21±0.55 , and 2.97±0.59, respectively. The highest and lowest attitude mean scores of both groups in all of the three domains belonged to neonatal disorders and parasitic diseases. Mean attitude scores of the two groups in the three mentioned domains were not significantly different.
