A group method for learning about psychiatric research.
Psychiatric trainees in their final year of training met fortnightly with an experienced psychiatric researcher. A group format was used to facilitate the development of skills employed in psychiatric research. Various exercises, including conducting a research project during the group sessions, were undertaken. This report highlights certain issues that may inhibit clinicians from undertaking research projects. It is presented from both the group leader's and the participants' perspectives.
