Comparing AI Role-Play and Peer Role-Play for Informed Consent Training in Endoscopy: A Randomized Control Trial
COMPARING AI ROLE-PLAY AND PEER ROLE-PLAY FOR INFORMED CONSENT TRAINING IN ENDOSCOPY: A RANDOMIZED CONTROL TRIAL
The Hospital for Sick Children
40 participants
Jul 2, 2025
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to find out whether AI-based role play is effective in teaching healthcare trainees how to obtain informed consent from patients for endoscopic procedures. The main question is: • How does generative AI-based role play compare to traditional peer role play in training healthcare trainees to deliver informed consent for endoscopic procedures? Researchers will compare AI-based role play with peer role play to see which method is more effective for teaching this skill. What participants will do: * Attend a lecture on how to obtain informed consent. * Take part in simulation-based training using either peer role play or AI-based role play. * Participate in a simulated clinical encounter to assess their ability to obtain informed consent.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria1
- \) physician trainee enrolled at the University of Toronto.
Exclusion Criteria1
- \) have previously obtained informed consent for an endoscopic procedure 25 or more times in either real clinical or simulated settings.

Interventions
Participants will role play informed consent scenarios with a generative AI-driven patient simulation designed to mimic a realistic consent discussion for an endoscopic procedure.
Participants will role play informed consent discussions with a peer (i.e., another participant randomized to this group)
