Initial evaluation of a hidden agenda method of teaching the interview.
A structured role-playing method of teaching the biopsychosocial interview using hidden agendas and videotape feedback was developed and evaluated. The teaching method significantly improved medical student interviewing skills as reflected by pre-post scores of 83 third-year students on the Facilitating Response Index. The teaching method is described in detail and recommendations for future research are presented.
