ResumoInitial instruction in the pelvic examination in the United States and Canada was reviewed by questionnaire. Seventy-two percent of the 116 responding medical schools taught this material in the second year, two-thirds with a specific course devoted to the subject. Ninety-three percent used "live models" or "teaching associates" in place of, or in addition to, traditional methods such as the examination of clinic patients. The use of teaching associates was uniformly rated as an extremely effective educational method. A continued trend toward use of an educational methodology that emphasizes communication as well as psychomotor skill instruction is identified.
