Importance-based approach to entrustable professional activities for psychiatric residency training.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Entrustable professional activities (EPAs) are essential tools in implementing CBME and integrating milestones into clinical practice. This study aimed to develop a set of EPAs tailored to the psychiatric residency training context with local institutional needs, and to dissect the differences and factor analysis in perceived EPA importance.

Methods

21 customized EPAs specific to psychiatric residency training at Taipei City Psychiatric Center (TCPC) were developed based on the Taiwanese Society of Psychiatry (TSOP) framework. A two-round Delphi method was used to achieve consensus for the EPAs. The finalized EPAs were evaluated using an online questionnaire, and faculty members and residents rated each activity's importance on a Likert scale of 0-10. Statistical
