Abstract
Problem-based learning (PBL) is a method of teaching that uses hypothetical clinical cases, individual investigation, and group process. This pilot project used a PBL approach to teach forensic psychiatry to psychiatric residents. The change in the residents' level of comfort with five major domains of forensic psychiatry were evaluated at pre- and posttraining stages. The residents' level of comfort with the educational issues of testimony, liability, and competence, as well as subjective ratings of their forensic knowledge base, improved significantly. Postcourse satisfaction with the PBL method was moderately high.Preview Only. This article cannot be rented because we do not currently have permission from the publisher.
