title: Journal club experience in a postgraduate psychiatry program in Chile.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Literature about journal clubs in postgraduate psychiatry programs is scarce, and there is no reference to residents' preferences.
  
  
  METHODS
  Residents were asked to respond to a survey about their general satisfaction with the current journal club format and paper preferences, according to subject, scope, and type.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Residents' general satisfaction was high. Residents preferred clinically relevant meta-analyses and randomized controlled trials about mood and psychotic disorders, neuroscience, and biological therapies.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  There is a trend to prefer articles related to biological aspects of psychiatry, centered in evidence-based medicine methodology. An effort should be made to broaden the scope of selection of papers, incorporating, for instance, humanistic views, psychotherapy, and other methodologies.
