Participants were randomized 1:1 to the intervention group (stress management, communication training, and OSCE simulation) or the control group. OSCE examiners were blinded to group allocation. Anxiety was measured using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-State scale (STAI-State) before the intervention (T0), after the intervention (T1; intervention group only), and before the second mock OSCE (T2). OSCE scores and anxiety levels were compared between groups, and changes in anxiety over time were analyzed among students in the intervention group.Results: A total of 109 students were included in the per-protocol analysis (49 intervention, 60 control). Global OSCE scores at T2 did not differ between groups (median [interquartile range], 13.0\/20 [11.9\u201314.3] vs. 13.3\/20 [12.0\u201314.6]; effect size, 0.08 [95% confidence interval, \u22120.14 to 0.29]; P=0.50). Anxiety levels were moderate, with no significant between-group difference (STAI-State score, 49 [43\u201350], n=8, in the intervention group vs. 44 [42\u201346], n=19, in the control group; P=0.21). A transient increase in situational anxiety was observed immediately after training in some intervention participants. No correlation was found between anxiety and OSCE performance.Conclusion: A short multimodal workshop focused on stress management and communication training did not improve OSCE performance or OSCE-related anxiety, suggesting that single-session interventions may be insufficient.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3352\/jeehp.2026.23.19","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,19]],"date-time":"2026-06-19T05:09:07Z","timestamp":1781845747000},"page":"19","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3352\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Efficacy
