The scientific literature supports Problem-Based Learning (PBL) as an effective method for developing clinical reasoning (CR) in healthcare professionals. However, Peru's traditional educational system, focused on memorization, produces professionals with deficiencies in this crucial skill for clinical decision-making. In this context, the present study investigated the relationship between PBL and the development of CR in physical therapists enrolled in a diploma program in Musculoskeletal Physical Therapy at a private continuing education institution in 2024. The main objective was to determine whether there was a relationship between the two variables. To this end, two self-administered questionnaires were used after several sessions of the diploma program that used PBL: o3ne to assess the application of PBL and the Clinical Thinking Inventory to measure CR. The results revealed a direct and positive relationship between PBL and CR in the participating physical therapists. However, this relationship was classified as weak, with the researchers suggesting that this weakness could be attributed to the limited number of teaching sessions in which PBL was applied. In conclusion, this preliminary study suggests that PBL may have a positive impact on the development of CR in physical therapists. However, the need for future research with a larger number of sessions and a more robust study design is emphasized to confirm and deepen these findings.
