The narrative turn in doctor-patient communication research and cultivation of medical students' medical narrative competence[J]. 2015,14(6):639-642.DOI:
Effective medical practice in the bio-psycho-social medical model calls for the doc-tor's narrative and communicative skills. The gradual application of narratives in medical practice and research facilitates the combination of narrative methods with medical science. The narrative medi-cine movement greatly promotes the narrative turn in the research of doctor-patient communication and provides a new perspective in medical humanities education. In the process of doctor-patient com-munication
the appropriate use of doctors' high narrative competence contributes to effective doctor-patient communication and helps to build a harmonious doctor-patient relationship. In medical educa-tion
the teaching strategy of combining classroom teaching with clinical probation teaching should be adopted to cultivate and enhance medical students' medical narrative competence.
