The present study surveyed medical schools in Britain to critically evaluate the current status of communication skills training in medical education. Results indicate that though all respondents provide some form of communication skills training for students, relatively few are committed to formal instruction, assessment, and evaluation of the subject within the medical curriculum. The methods and objectives of training are considered in terms of effective learning and skills acquisition, with reference to training and learning literature. The findings are discussed within the wider issue of social science in medicine; it is argued that there is a real need for critical assessment which should be linked to professional advancement.
本研究对英国的医学院校进行了调查，以严格评估医学教育中沟通技能培训的现状。结果表明，尽管所有受访者都为学生提供了某种形式的沟通技能培训，但相对较少的院校致力于在医学课程中对该学科进行正式教学、评估和评价。参照培训与学习文献，从有效学习和技能获取的角度考虑了培训方法和目标。在医学领域社会科学这个更广泛的问题背景下讨论了这些发现；有人认为确实需要进行批判性评估，且这种评估应与职业发展相联系。
