title: [Socialization of physician's role during the clinical part of medical education. 1: Students' assessment of own skills].
abstract: The learning of clinical skills may be the most important factor in the socialization of medical students to the doctor's role. In this survey 225 students from early and late stages of the clinical curriculum at the University of Oslo were asked to assess their clinical skills. The results show that many students lack sufficient practice, and there is little development of clinical skills from early to late stages of the clinical curriculum. This can promote an uncertainty amongst the students about the doctor's role. These results should lead to changes in the clinical teaching. Each department should set clearer objectives for what the students should be taught, and should verify that this takes place. Training in communication skills should be emphasized. Students should be given greater responsibility for clinical work throughout the clinical phase of their training.
