Book Facts And Figures

[Beichen Poque]

Thisreport provides students, medical educators and administrators, researchers, policymakers, the media, and the general public with detailed statistical information about race, ethnicity, and sex in medical education and the physician workforce in the United States. It displays applicant, matriculant, and graduate data for the academic year 2018-2019 and faculty and workforce data for 2018. The data presented are primarily from the AAMC, with additional data from the American Medical Association.

Previously, the AAMC published this report biennially, with the focus alternating between diversity in medical education and diversity in the physician workforce. Beginning in 2019, the AAMC will combine the two topics for future editions of the report. Previous editions of the report are available at aamc.org/factsfiguresreports.

This report presents medical education and physician workforce diversity data. It incorporates multiple sources of data that the AAMC collects or has permission to access (Table 1). The data sources used are identified in the figure or table or in the notes following each figure or table.

This report is presented in an order that mirrors the medical education continuum: medical school application, acceptance, matriculation, graduation, residency and fellowship, and teaching and clinical practice.

For physician workforce data, the definitions for active physician, primary care physician, and practice specialty correspond to the definitions in the 2019 State Physician Workforce Data Report and the 2018 Physician Specialty Data Report, both of which can be found at aamc.org.

Medical school faculty continued to be predominantly White (63.9%) and male (58.6%) overall, and especially so at the professor and associate professor ranks (Figures 15-17). As discussed in previous editions of the Diversity Facts and Figures report, there remains persistent underrepresentation of certain racial and ethnic minority groups and women in medical school faculty positions. Additional findings can be found in Figures 15 through 17.

In 2020, EPA released the last Advancing Sustainable Materials Management: Facts and Figures Fact Sheet, formerly called Municipal Solid Waste in the United States: Facts and Figures based on 2018 data. It includes information on Municipal Solid Waste generation, recycling, composting, other food management, combustion with energy recovery and landfilling. The 2014, 2015, 2017, and 2018 factsheets also include information on construction and demolition debris, which is outside of the scope of municipal solid waste. Data are in U.S. short tons unless specified.

The data is set up based on the monthly figures for 90 of the 93 state parks and historic sites that report attendance. The camping unit figures are from camping permit sales. Total visitors include campers, lodging guests and day-use visitors. The column for lodging units rented reflects the total number of nightly rentals for park-operated lodging and our contracted concession-run operations.

In order to make the state parks and historic sites in the system a great place to enjoy nature and discover the past, Missouri State Parks manages a wide variety of structures and facilities. These include:

During several comprehensive studies conducted since 1995, users of state parks and historic sites indicated their ongoing satisfaction with the state park system. According to the 2000 survey conducted by the University of Missouri, almost 99% of the users surveyed were satisfied with their visit.

As part of this SCORP, three statewide surveys were conducted of residents and outdoor recreation professionals. Primary research data was compared to national studies and trends for a broad-based perspective. And for the first time, an inventory of Missouri trails was initiated, a rich resource in the state that distinguishes Missouri as an outdoor destination.

By engaging both residents and professionals in the process, a great deal was learned about the challenges and issues faced in making outdoor recreation opportunities available to all Missouri residents
