Abstract	Especially in university hospitals, many physicians have to fulfil multiple roles as they treat patients, conduct research and act as clinical teachers. The present study focuses upon the latter role and analyses which attitudes and motivational patterns guide physicians in their teaching activities. With regard to motivation, we draw on self-determination theory and distinguish between autonomous and controlled motives. In terms of attitude, we examine the extent to which clinical teachers use teaching activities that relate to a transmissive or constructivist paradigm. These questions are investigated using data from a questionnaire study conducted at a German university hospital. The respondents were 314 physicians who participated in one of two didactic qualification workshops at different points in their professional career. Physicians reported higher scores for autonomous types of motivation (derived from the self) than for controlled types (influenced by external factors). Further, we found that overall, the physicians considered both transmissive and constructivist concepts relevant for their teaching, but agreed even stronger to the constructivist paradigm. Latent class analyses revealed distinct patterns of attitudes towards teaching, but no relation between different motivations and teaching attitudes was found. (DIPF/Orig.).
