dc.description.abstractAim: Good communication is associated with improved health of patients and empathy is a cornerstone of physician-patient communication. Medical education seems to be ineffective in helping students to maintain or increase their empathy. Some of benefits of Problem Based Learning (PBL) are about communication and interpersonal skills. This study aims to determine the effect of a PBL scenario on attitudes towards communication skills, the empathic tendency and the empathic skills of 1st year medical students. Materials and Methods: Attitude changes after the PBL scenario were evaluated via Communication Skills Attitude Scale (CSAS), Empathic Tendency Scale (ETS) and Empathic Skill Scale (ESS). Results: The positive attitude change was significant for male students (p=0.03). The means of ETS scores were 68.42 +/- 8.28 and 69.18 +/- 8.53 (p=0.36) and the means of ESS scores were 131.16 +/- 17.28 and 133.30 +/- 18.35 in the pre and post-tests, respectively (p=0.22). The ESS scores of male students both in pre and post tests were significantly higher than female students (p=0.00). A significant negative correlation between NAS and ETS and a positive correlation between PAS and ETS in both tests were determined. Conclusion: This scenario significantly increased positive attitudes (PAS) of students towards communication skills. There was also an increase in empathic tendency and skills.en_US
