Material and methods: to test the impact of cheerleading classes on the psychophysical condition of students, a pedagogical experiment lasting 9 months (September 2018 – May 2019) was organized. The study involved second-year students aged 15–17 of Kamyanka Vocational College of Food Technology and Entrepreneurship, DSTU. The students were divided into two groups: EG – experimental group (n=22) and CG – control group (n=30). The control group was engaged in the generally accepted program of physical culture, and the experimental group was engaged in cheerleading in physical education classes. Classes were held twice a week. At the beginning of the pedagogical experiment (September) and after its completion (May), we tested female students on indicators of psychophysical condition. The following meds were used: theoretical; empirical; psychodiagnostic; pedagogical testing; pedagogical experiment; methods of mathematical statistics. Results: as a result of the use of cheerleading in physical education classes during the school year, there was a significant statistically significant (p<0,05–0,01) increase in the results of pedagogical tests on physical fitness in students of the experimental group. The indicators of the girls of the control group had a positive dynamics, but did not reach statistically significant differences (p>0,05), except for the indicators in the test "Flexion and extension of the arms in a supine position" (p<0,05). It was determined that in the EG of girls at the end of the experiment there was a significant improvement in the studied mental states of EG students (p<0,05) compared with CG students (p>0,05). Conclusions: the study suggests a high efficiency of the use of cheerleading in the system of physical education, which contributed to the improvement of the psychophysical condition of female students.

Purpose: Narrative medicine consists of the expression of medical experiences and the reflection on narratives to foster empathic communication with patients. Reflecting on narratives increases self-awareness and recognition of the feelings of the narrator or the story’s main character, which in turn affects the audience. This study was conducted to examine the impact of a narrative medicine program on the reflective capacity and empathy of medical students.Methods: A quasi-experimental study was performed during the 2018–2019 academic year at Isfahan University of Medical Sciences in Iran involving 135 medical interns in 2 groups (control [n=66] and experimental [n=69]). Interns in the experimental group took part in seven 2-hour reflective practice sessions, while those in the control group underwent no educational intervention. Pre-test and post-test assessments were conducted for both groups using 2 valid and reliable tools for the assessment of reflective capacity and empathy. Mean reflection and empathy scores were compared within groups (between pre- and post-test values) and between groups (using the paired-t test and the t-test; P≤0.05).Results: The mean reflection and empathy scores of the experimental group significantly increased from pre-test to post-test, but those of the control group did not. Moreover, the mean post-test scores were significantly different between the 2 groups (P<0.001).Conclusion: Narrative medicine is an effective teaching method that can improve reflective capacity and empathy, thereby ultimately promoting professionalism as a core competency in medicine. Consideration of learning conditions and interdisciplinary teaching are necessary for implementing a narrative medicine program.
