Abstract:
In the fourth-year curriculum of the Chiba University School of Medicine, suggesting changes in health behavior and informing patients of bad news were studied through lectures and small-group role-playing with simulated patients as part of an advanced course in medical interviewing. We report on the contents of the curriculum and the results of an evaluation.
