Teaching on gender-related issues; a survey of psychiatry faculty and residents.
A survey was distributed to 299 members of the McGill Department of Psychiatry regarding the teaching of gender-related issues. The response rate was 62.5%. The majority of respondents indicated that they were moderately or very knowledgeable about, and moderately or very interested in gender issues. Current teaching was rated as less than adequate, while future teaching was rated as very important. Women rated personal interest and importance of future teaching higher than men, but rated adequacy of current teaching lower. Residents rated personal interest higher than certified psychiatrists, but rated self-assessed knowledge lower, and tended to rate adequacy of current teaching lower.
