In text mining-based analysis of their free descriptions, the most frequent word was “students”, followed by “guidance”, “reports”, “understanding”, and “training”, in this order. The results also revealed a strong correlation with frequent words that were characteristic and related to reporting guidance. Furthermore, geometric figures outlining the relationships among words were created. [Conclusion] It may be necessary to clarify the difficulties faced by supervisors, in order to improve the quality of physical therapy education.
