Description

Stone, Miller, and Johnston study men training less than full time in Scottish medicine in twenty twenty-four. Twenty-six men with such training experience sat for deep interviews. Four themes emerged from the talks. Work culture, gender norms, lived experience, and push pull factors framed them.

The ideal worker image still wins peer respect and manly standing, men felt. Part time training reads as a women's path, leaving men feeling odd or stigmatized. Gains in life and work were real but hinged on unit support. Both image and practical blocks slow male uptake. The authors urge fixes across culture, process, and planning.
