Abstract:
Objective This study aims to establish a hidden curriculum-based medical humanities teaching pathway within surgical internship education and evaluate its effectiveness in enhancing students' humanistic care competence.Methods A single-group pre-test and post-test design was adopted.A total of 76 interns from a tertiary teaching hospital in 2024 were in-cluded.A five-dimensional hidden curriculum framework—material,spiritual,behavioral,faculty,and institutional—was con-structed.Humanistic competence was assessed before and after the intervention using the Humanistic Professional Awareness Scale for Healthcare Students and Providers(HPAS-HSP).Results Post-intervention scores significantly improved compared to pre-intervention across the total scale in the three dimensions:personal integrity and responsibility,sensitivity to others,and pro-fessional competence(P＜0.05),with the greatest improvement observed in sensitivity to others.Conclusion The structured hidden curriculum is effective in enhancing medical students' humanistic qualities,especially in fostering emotional resonance and professional identity.Future work should focus on verifying behavioral transformation and developing multi-source evaluation sys-tems to improve effectiveness and applicability.
