Abstract：Objective To understand the status quo of the post competency of general practitioners in standardized residency training bases in Shanxi and analyze the influencing factors,so as to provide basis for improving the post competency of general practitioners.Methods From February to March 2024,815 general practitioners in standardized residency training bases in Shanxi were investigated by electronic questionnaire,and their abilities in basic medical services,public health services,humanistic practice,and education and learning were specifically evaluated,to analyze the status quo of resident doctors'post competency and its influencing factors.Results Compared with the first grade,the basic medical service ability of the second and third grades was significantly improved(P<0.017),and in terms of humanistic practice ability,the post competency score of the third grade was higher than that of the first grade(P<0.017).There were significant differences in the post competency scores of different age groups,identities,grades,degrees of doctor's popularity in patients and self-ratings of work performance(all P<0.05),among which the identity of general practitioners,degree of doctor's popularity in patients and self-rating of work performance significantly affected the post competency score(all P<0.05).The post competency of hospital personnel was 2.396 points higher than that of order-oriented students on average.The average post competency score of social physicians was 1.901 points higher than that of order-oriented students.The average post competency score of general practitioners increased by 2.530 points and 2.676 points respectively for each upper level of the doctor's popularity in patients and the self-evaluation score of work performance.Conclusion There is still a lot of room to improve the post competency of general practitioners in Shanxi.In the future,we will focus on the basic medical service ability dimension to further improve the post competency level of general practitioners in Shanxi.
