Objective:

To evaluate a novel tutorial-based model designed to promote early clinical-humanities integration for first-year medical students.

Approach:
    Key Findings:
    • 90.9% of students reported good adaptation to the tutorial model.
    • 88.0% expressed increased learning interest.
    • Male students showed significantly stronger agreement on enhanced interest and model effectiveness (p < 0.05).
    • Key practical modules were rated as highly effective.
    • 87.3% reported improvement in patient communication, and 85.1% in teamwork.
    Interpretation:

    The tutorial-based model is perceived as a feasible and promising strategy for early clinical-humanities integration in medical education.

    Limitations:
    • The study is limited to a single institution, which may affect generalizability.
    • Self-reported data may introduce bias.
    Conclusion:

    The findings suggest significant potential for broader implementation of the tutorial-based model in medical education reform.
