[The teaching of the history of medicine in the training of the physician].
In the education of the future physician, it is very important to favor the acquisition of attitudes which lead to the awakening of cultural values and to form a conception of the world; in short: humanism. The social history of medicine is a very appropriate discipline to awaken these attitudes and to sensitize them toward these values. The author presents his experience in the teaching-learning of the history of medicine, with objectives principally directed to create positive attitudes toward cultural and humanistic values, and with pedagogic methodologies oriented toward said objectives. Using the inquiries of students made during the 1981 courses, the results of some questions were analyzed and measured according to the personal interest of the student toward the assignment, and the student's opinion about the utility of this subject in professional education; these two parameters were correlated with class activities and the student's participation.
