Abstract: Objective To assess satisfaction with the psychiatric scope-of-practice transfer training program among participating physicians in Sichuan Province, in order to inform improvements in training content and quality. Methods In January 2025, a self-designed questionnaire based on the reaction level of the Kirkpatrick four-level evaluation model was administered to 454 trainees from cohorts 9 to 11 of the psychiatric scope-of-practice transfer training program in Sichuan Province. The questionnaire collected information of trainees′ basic characteristics, sending institutions, motivation for participation, and satisfaction with theoretical and practical training. Descriptive analysis was performed on the data, and non-parametric tests were used to compare satisfaction scores among different categories of trainees. Results The overall satisfaction score was 4.65 (4.00, 5.00). Satisfaction with theoretical training 4.73 (4.00, 5.00) was higher than that with practical training 4.61 (4.00, 5.00). Among all dimensions, satisfaction scores for theoretical training content and practical training conditions were relatively low: 4.67 (4.00, 5.00) and 4.60 (4.00, 5.00), respectively. Among the 77 trainees who responded to the open-ended question regarding training suggestions, 39 (50.6%) proposed that training opportunities and duration should be increased. Of the 79 trainees who reported difficulties in engaging in mental health work, 30 (38.0%) identified insufficient institutional resources as the primary difficulty. Trainees who participated with personal initiative reported higher satisfaction 4.82 (4.00, 5.00) than those who participated due to institutional requirements 4.27 (4.00, 4.73). Similarly, trainees whose institutions valued mental health work reported higher satisfaction 4.73 (4.00, 5.00) than those whose institutions did not 4.36 (4.00, 5.00), and both differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions The psychiatric scope-of-practice transfer training program in Sichuan Province was generally well received by trainees. However, gaps remained in theoretical training content and practical training conditions. Insufficient institutional resources hindered their engagement in mental health work to some extent. While personal initiative in participation and institutional emphasis on mental health work were associated with higher satisfaction. Future efforts should focus on motivating trainees, securing institutional support, optimizing theoretical content, and increasing practical training opportunities, so as to strengthen the psychiatric workforce.
