The National Curriculum in Reproductive Psychiatry (NCRP) serves diverse users beyond residency programs. Future development should focus on shorter, multimedia content to meet evolving educational needs in reproductive psychiatry.
Area of Science:
- Psychiatry
- Medical Education
Background:
- The National Curriculum in Reproductive Psychiatry (NCRP) was established in 2019 to address a deficit in reproductive psychiatry training.
- Online accessibility allows for diverse user engagement beyond the intended audience.
Purpose of the Study:
- To characterize the user base of the NCRP.
- To assess the educational needs of NCRP users.
- To inform future curriculum development.
Main Methods:
- A two-phase survey was distributed to registered NCRP users and via professional networks.
- The survey collected data on user demographics, training, usage patterns, satisfaction, and needs.
- Quantitative and qualitative data analysis was performed.
Main Results:
- A response rate of 23% was achieved in phase 1, with an additional 42 responses in phase 2.
- Most respondents specialized in psychiatry (81%) and were physicians (70%).
- Over half of respondents (56%) were independent learners, reporting high satisfaction but requesting shorter, multimedia content.
Conclusions:
- The NCRP attracts a broad, interdisciplinary audience, including independent learners.
- User feedback indicates a preference for more concise, multimedia-enhanced educational materials.
- Barriers to residency program integration include time constraints and competing priorities, necessitating flexible content development.
