5 79 Geriatric IPE for enhancing students’ interest in treating older people Figure 5.1: Visualisation of the intervention and control group. Before (T1) and one year after the intervention (T2) all students reported their interest in working with children, adults and older patients on a 5-point Likert scale (Figure 5.2). At T1 the questionnaire was handed out in person. At T2 the students received the questionnaire by email. The questionnaire consisted of one question, that needed to be answered by the students for 3 patient groups: ‘elderly’, ‘adults’ and ‘children’. This question was: ‘How interesting do you find these patient groups? Mark the option that best describes you at this time for each patient group”. Below the question there was a table in which the students could tick boxes for the 3 patient groups, there were five possibilities, from “Not interesting at all (1)” to “Very interesting (5)”. This short questionnaire was self-developed.
