Abstract：Objective To assess the role and significance of peer-assisted learning(PAL)strategy in the development of clinical research skills of internal medicine residents under standardized training.Methods Sixty-two residents learning in the Department of Rheumatology were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group.The two groups of residents received clinical research training using the conventional lecture mode and the PAL strategy respectively,and were compared before and after the training to assess the differences in overall cognitive status,cognitive status in terms of research thinking and statistical analysis,and to evaluate the passing rates and degree of satisfaction.Results There were no statistically significant differences in the pre-training status of the two groups of residents in terms of general cognitive situation,research thinking and statistical analysis(all P>0.05).After training with different methods,residents in the observation group who received training via the PAL strategy showed a significant advantage over the control group in the assessment of general cognition,research thinking and statistical analysis(all P<0.05).The number of residents who passed the assessment was also significantly higher than that of the control group(P=0.022).As for the learning satisfaction survey,the observation group had higher degree of satisfaction than the control group.Conclusion The PAL strategy is efficient and valuable for the development of clinical research ability of internal medicine residents under standardized training.
