Evolution of Learning Styles in Surgery Comparing Residents and Teachers: Cross-Sectional Study
The prevalence of learning styles among general surgery residents and professors at this Brazilian hospital differs from that observed in previous studies, with more diverging and accommodating learners and fewer converging learners, suggesting a shift in learning styles. Understanding learning styles is important for effective surgical training programs. Further research with larger and more diverse populations is needed to confirm these results and explore the factors contributing to the observed differences in learning styles.
