Study on Students' Impression Data in Practical Training Using Text Mining Method<br/>&mdash;Analysis of Considerable Communication&mdash;

Abstract

We analyzed impression data and the scale of communication skills of students using text mining method to clarify which area a student was conscious of in communication in practical training. The results revealed that students tended to be conscious of the diŠerence between practical hospital training and practical pharmacy training. In practical hospital training, speciˆc expressions denoting relationships were``patient-visit'',``counseling-conduct'',``patientcounseling'', and``patient-talk''. In practical pharmacy training, speciˆc expressions denoting relationships werè`p atient counseling-conduct'',``story-listen'',``patient-many'', and``patient-visit''. In practical hospital training, the word``patient'' was connected to many words suggesting that students were conscious of a patient-centered communication. In practical pharmacy training, words such as``patient counseling'',``patient'', and``explanation'' were placed in center and connected with many other words and there was an independent relationship between``communication'' and`a ccept''. In conclusion, it was suggested that students attempted active patient-centered communication in practical hospital training, while they were conscious of listening closely in patient counseling in practical pharmacy training.
