A Curriculum on Digital Psychiatry for a US-Based Psychiatry Residency Training Program: Pilot Implementation Study (Preprint)

Abstract

UNSTRUCTURED This manuscript is intended to serve as a tutorial for programs seeking to create and implement a didactic curriculum in the field of Digital Psychiatry. To accomplish this task, this work includes a narrative description of a Digital Psychiatry Interest Group as well as the components of the developed didactic curriculum. This curriculum was taught to separate psychiatry residency training classes, with solicited feedback through surveys. The survey data is further discussed on trainee response to this new residency curriculum. Our hope is that other psychiatry programs can use this tutorial as a template to further trainees’ knowledge in this growing field.
