Participation of pharmacist CRC in practical on-site training--a survey by questionnaires for pharmacy students.

In order to estimate the 4th grade-students' knowledge regarding clinical trials, we carried out the questionnaire survey to the students being about to take practice in hospitals, and could collect answers from 163 students. This survey revealed that about 25% of the students could not draw the difference between "clinical trial" and "clinical research". As for the question about the technical terms regarding the clinical trial, clear correlation between students' learning experience and their knowledge was suggested.
