Investigating academic veterinarians' knowledge of biostatistics: A web-based survey

Öz:

Web -tabanlı çalışmamızın birincil amacı veteriner hekimlerin istatistik bilgisini anlamak ve istatistik bilgisinin çalışmaalanlarına göre nasıl değiştiğini incelemektir. İkinci amaç şu soruya yanıt aramaktadır: Veteriner hekimliği eğitiminde biyoistatistikne zaman öğretilmelidir? Çalışmaya 41 ülkeden 155 veteriner hekim katılmıştır. Sonuçlar veteriner hekimlerin biyoistatistikeğitimine önem verdiğini, bu eğitimin hem lisans hem lisans üstü seviyesinde verilmesi gerektiğini ayrıca biyoistatistik ders i alm anınmeslekleri için yararlı olduğuna inandıklarını göstermektedir. Biyoistatistik eğitiminde, çalışmaların planlama aşamasında ön emli birrol oynayan örnekleme konusu özellikle dikkate alınmalıdır. Biyoistatistik eğitiminde ayrıca bir çalışmanın planlanır ken biyoistatistikuzmanına danışılmasının gerekliliği vurgulanmalıdır.

Öz:

The primary aim of our study, web -based survey, is to gain an understanding of veterinarians statisticalknowledge and how it varies by focus area. The secondary aim is to address the following question: when should biostatistics betaught in veterinary education? A total of 155 veterinarians from 41 countries participated in this study. The results indicate thatwhile veterinarians place an emphasis on biostatistics education, the majority state that biostatistics education should be taken b oth atthe undergraduate and postgraduate level and the participants also believe that taking a biostatistics course is useful for theiroccupation. In biostatistics education, the topic of sampling, which plays a significant role at the planning stage of any study, shouldbe considered particularly important. A biostatistics education should also emphasize the necessity of consulting to a biostatisticianwhen planning a study.
