The method of a morning report depends on the addressed group and its purpose. The aim of this study was to evaluate the educational quality of morning report sessions from the perspective of Mashhad’s pediatric interns. Methods: The population included pediatric interns of Mashhad University of Medical Sciences. Data were collected by a researcher-made questionnaire. The questionnaire included the interns' attitudes towards the general medicine’s morning report as compared with those of residents. The credibility of the questionnaire was estimated by experts and its reliability was calculated by Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.93. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (one-sample T-test) using SPSS 19. Results: Investigating 14 items showed that, apart from the mental relaxation item in which t=1.372 was not significant at α = 0.05, the interns recognized all the items as appropriate. According to them, these sessions provide more opportunity for content presentation, question and answer, creating satisfaction, more discussion in different fields, more education and usefulness, and provide further evaluation of interns. Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, from the perspective of pediatric interns, the condition of general medicine’s morning reports in hospitals is favorable.}, keywords = {General Medicine,Interns,Medical education,Morning Report}, url = {https://fmej.mums.ac.ir/article_11339.html}, eprint = {https://fmej.mums.ac.ir/article_11339_e5acc1688d1ca62dfb43dc9d41d60e98.pdf} }
