A 21-item check-list is presented that evaluates the quality of the medical interview, focusing on politeness, respect, and communication. Twenty-eight interviews conducted by family medicine residents were videotaped. Using the check-list, four teachers as well as the resident evaluated each interview. Reliability and content validity were demonstrated. This list is easy to use and may enhance the learning of interviewing skills by giving objective feedback to the resident.
