Abstract: Objective To explore the homogeneity of standardized resident training (SRT) in psychiatric department between general and psychiatric hospital in Jiangsu province. Methods Using questionnaire survey for research ability, health and psychology, and assessment of psychiatry and general medicine ability, clinical skills ,humanistic quality, investigations about the homogeneity of psychiatric SRT results in Jiangsu province were made by investigating 106 SRT trainees in 7 psychiatric SRT bases (3 bases general hospital and 4 bases in psychiatric hospital) from November to December in 2016. Results The differences of trainees' clinical ability including psychiatry [(77.8±10.7) vs (72.6±11.0)], general medicine [(72.1±10.5) vs (62.2±11.5)], clinical skills [(79.2±5.1) vs (74.0±7.4)] and humanistic quality [(86.7±8.3) vs (90.2±5.2)] between general and psychiatric hospitals are significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions The SRT training effect on clinical skills for general hospitals are better than those for psychiatric hospitals, and the effect on humanistic quality is just the opposite. The homogeneity still needs to be further improved.
