Undergraduate general medicine education in Japan: A nationwide cross‐sectional survey of medical trainees' perspectives
The study suggested that behavioral science may be underlearned among medical trainees of the pre-2022 MCC generation. Medical educators in Japan should formulate curricula in accordance with the 2022 revision MCC and improve curricula regarding behavioral science. Future research should survey the generation of trainees who receive 2022 revision MCC-compliant medical education; comparison of results with those of this study would be valuable in examining the effects of the revised guideline and inform international medical educators.
