Estimation of job satisfaction and effects of DPC by physicians (P) and nurses (N) under the 10:1 (1) and 7:1 (2) systems. Working status (a) was scored using a Likert-type 5-point scale: (5) “many,” (4) “somewhat many,” (3) “neither many nor few,” (2) “somewhat few,” and (1) “few.” Effects after the introduction of DPC (b) were scored as: (5) “totally agree,” (4) “somewhat agree,” (3) “neither agree nor disagree,” (2) “somewhat disagree,” and (1) “disagree.” The differences in scores among groups were as analyzed with one-way ANOVA following Scheffe’s post hoc test (*P < 0.05)
