Problem-Based Learning (PBL) method is based on activities that encourage several education competencies, making shorter the distance between real and hypothetical learning problems. To establish the relationship between clinical reasoning and PBL teaching, action research method was implemented in 32 Mexican second-year Nutrition Bachelor Students during a 16-week period.
