    Abstract

    Group teaching in problem-based interviewing based on video and audiotape feedback of the doctor's own consultations significantly improved the ability of experienced general practitioners to teach psychiatric skills to their trainees. When the GPs were randomly allocated to one of three further training experiences-video feedback of their tutorial sessions, discussion about how to teach and no further teaching, there were very few differences between the groups. The greatest impact on improving teaching skills was brought about by watching their own consultations in a group feedback setting.
