| Abstract | An exploratory factor analysis is used in the study of institutional preferences in medical student admissions. Sources and mathematical derivations of 58 institutional variables are presented. Most of the measures describe attributes related to the admission process. The remainder were selected to represent other dimensions along which medical schools have been observed to vary. The data for 86 established schools were submitted to principal component analysis. From several resulting factor patterns, the most interesting pattern is reported and interpreted. The analysis is exploratory in nature, designed to enhance understanding of new data and their potential usefulness for developing and testing hypothesis concerning institutional variation in admissions preferences. Abbreviations used in variable labels and interpretation of the factor pattern matrix are included in the appendices. (SPG) |
