1) To examine the significance and problems of medical interview training, self-administered questionnaires were completed by 90 students who took part in medical interview training with simulated patients in clinical training after objective structured clinical examinations.2) Most students thought that medical interview training was meaningful and thanked the simulated patients for their useful comments. On the other hand, some students felt that to improve their interviewing skills stricter feedback from simulated patients and instructors might be needed.3) Our results suggest that repeated training in medical interviewing in clinical training after objective structured clinical examinations is an effective method for teaching communication skills. However, in the future the scenarios should be improved and the frequency of medical interview training should be increased.
