Abstract

1) Medical interview practice with simulated patients is an effective method for facilitating the learning of intervie w skills by health professionals.In particular, feedback from simulated patients is an extremely useful means for healti professionals to learn what patients are thinking.
2) However, because simulated patients must have significant amounts of training and experience to provide effective feedback, many find the task challenging, difficult, and stressful.
3) Therefore, we created a feedback worksheet so that simulated patient know what to keep in mind during interviews and how to share their feelings in a precise and simple manner.
