Introduction: With the upcoming of technology in every field, communication has taken a step back since more interfaces have become user friendly and requires minimal human interaction. In this study, we are assessing the attitude of these new generation doctors about the importance of communication skill in patient care for their future practice. Methodology: All the 1st year MBBS students in Karnataka were the study participants. Data was collected using a semi-structured questionnaire (26 Items) on a google form and sent to them to fill up. Collection & storage of data in prepared proforma/ MS Excel Sheet, etc. Results: Using Principal Component Analysis (PCA), after scoring and grouping the items as high, medium and low score. The results indicate that the majority of individuals have an excellent perception (90.1%), but also are moderately sceptical (61.9 %) and moderately ignorant (90.1%) towards communication skills. Conclusion: Overall, the results suggest that while there is generally a positive perception of communication skills, there are also some doubts and areas of ignorance that need to be addressed through targeted interventions to improve communication skills in this population. Thus, implementing the communication skills early in medical curriculum will effectively help in making these budding doctors a great social physician. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
