The purpose of this study is to assess working environment preferences of radiological technologists using conjoint analysis. We carried a questionnaire survey on working environment preferences for 200 radiological technologists working in medical facilities in Japan. We defined eight characteristics for virtual medical facilities as follows: presence of colleagues who can be consulted, employment status, number of overtime work per month, academic meeting participation, number of hospital beds, presence of nuclear medicine imaging systems and radiation therapy systems, location of medical facilities, and change rate in annual income. A total of 18 virtual medical facilities were selected by an orthogonal array table using above-mentioned characteristics. The acquired data by the pairwise comparison method were analyzed by conjoint analysis. Marginal rates of substitution between income and non-pecuniary characteristics, which represent radiological technologists' preferences, were also calculated. The factors influenced on their preferences were the following: employment status is not part-time, medical facility is smaller in scale, nuclear medicine imaging systems and radiation therapy systems are set up, and the number of overtime work is less. It was suggested that radiological technologists have a tendency to avoid increase of workloads and select his/her working place with emphasis on own experiences.
