Abstract

Nine residents in anesthesiology, all graduates of foreign medical schools, were given a 6 wk intensive course in public speaking in an attempt to improve their communication skills in the English language. Test audio and videotapes of each resident were made before and after the course, numbered randomly, and graded by independent observers. A statistically significant improvement in the performance of the participants was found.
