(16) The students and docents were found to favor the partnership system and reported that most partnerships worked well.
(17) Although both the docents and the students consistently felt that more time should be devoted to each activity than actually was, the rank-order correlation between the docents' rating of the ideal and actual practice was .87, and between the students' ratings of ideal and actual it was .93.
(18) Mean ratings of ideal and actual practice were calculated for each activity as perceived by the docents and by the students.
(19) The present study includes 404 patients with Diabetes Mellitus, admitted into the Angiology Service from the Hospital Provincial Docente Manuel Ascunse Domenech, Camaguey and from Dr. Antonio Luaces Iraola, Ciego de Avila.
