Filter by:Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the impact of an educational program of Narrative Medicine "workshop reading diaries" dedicated to medical students on their empathy. Design: Randomized Controlled Trial in 2 arms. Participants: Medical students (4th years) of the University Paris Descartes. Methods: participants will be randomized in 2 groups. The allocation of participants will be done by a computerized randomization list, the sequence will be created by an independent statistician. Participants will be blinded of the study hypothesis. Allocation concealment will be provided because only the statistician will have access to the randomization list. A program of Narrative Medicine with lesson in small group of "workshop reading patients' diaries " vs "workshop reading literature". Outcome: The primary endpoint will be a first measure of the empathy of the medical students. The secondary endpoints will be a second measure of the empathy of the medical student; satisfaction of the student relative to the educational program . Potential interests: We believe that the workshop "reading patients' diaries" can develop the thinking of the student with respect to his behavior with the patient, and so the relation between student and patient. Sample size expected: 200 participants.

Our research hypothesis is that residents who participate in the empathy and relational skills training modules will significantly improve in these skills as compared to a control group of residents who receive residency training as usual that includes the current standard training in the doctor-patient relationship. To evaluate this hypothesis, we will use a two-pronged approach to assessment. The first prong is the residents' self assessment of empathy and the second is from the patients' perspective.
