A pilot study recently reported in this journal by Wakeford raised several important issues concerning the measurement and interpretation of students’ perpeption of the learning environment in five British medical schools. Some of those issues are developed in this paper as a result of similar, more comprehensive, research involving students in five Australian medical schools. One issue is the almost inevitable problem of methodology associated with large scale surveys of this kind. Another is the prospect for educational reform within an educational institution based heavily on students’ perceptions alone
