Abstract

Abstract

Objective To evaluate the impact of research-based learning （RBL）, a new teaching method, on the critical thinking ability of medical postgraduates in order to enhance their critical thinking skills. Methods A total of 330 postgraduate students majoring in medicine participated in this study. Among them, the experimental group （n = 165） completed the course of “Cultivation of Basic Quality of Scientific Research” using RBL teaching method, while the students in the control group （n = 165） did not participate in this course. Subsequently, a critical thinking ability questionnaire was used to assess the differences in critical thinking ability between the two groups. Results The experimental group had a higher total score in critical thinking ability compared to the control group （P < 0.001）. The experimental group also scored higher than the control group in five dimensions: seeking truth, analytical ability, confidence in critical thinking, curiosity, and cognitive maturity （P < 0.05）. Conclusion The RBL teaching method can improve the critical thinking ability of medical postgraduate students.
