Annotation
The article presents a study on the problem of developing communication skills among first- and second-year medical students. Communicative competence is an integral component of the general professional competence of every physician. Communication and interpersonal skills of doctors ensure their ability to collect relevant information from patients, make a correct diagnosis, draw up a therapeutic plan and establish proper mutual understanding between a patient and a physician. When developing communicative competence, it is necessary to take into account the interdisciplinary approach, continuity and sequence in the curriculum, and to simulate real situations starting from first year of study. Under present-day conditions the level of development of communication skills of future students is not taken into account when entering medical departments. Moreover, the disciplines studied during the first and second years and aimed at developing communicative competence are mainly theoretical. The purpose of this study was to identify the communicative inclinations of the first- and second-year medical students of Ulyanovsk State University. We used the adapted test questionnaire Communicative and Organizational Abilities by V. V. Sinyavsky and B. A. Fedorishin. Students were asked to anonymously answer 20 questions to determine their level of communication skills. The analysis of the data obtained shows that almost half of the respondents demonstrated medium, low and very low levels of communicative abilities. This fact indicates the need to train medical students interpersonal communication skills in order to develop their readiness for professional interaction.
