Abstract

Background: The use of virtual reality simulation for the training of non-technical skills among healthcare professionals may improve professional development as well as the quality of care. This study aims to explore the experiences of resident doctors in child and adolescent psychiatry with the use of virtual reality-based simulation for the training of non-technical skills.

Methods: The study had an exploratory qualitative design. Data were collected through observations of thirteen resident doctors in child and adolescent psychiatry during their participation in three virtual reality-based simulation sessions, followed by two focus groups. Data were analyzed using reflective thematic analysis.

Results: The analysis revealed the following three themes: 1) The importance of pedagogical principles, 2) Playful and motionally affected learning, and 3) Observational learning contributing to lifelong learning.

Conclusions: Virtual reality-based simulation was felt to be an appropriate method of training non-technical skills for resident doctors in child and adolescent psychiatry. In particular, the intervention met resident doctors' desires and needs regarding learning through observation and peer discussions. However, some challenges related to technical issues and the content of the scenarios were highlighted. This method may not only increase the resident doctors' self-efficacy and competence, but also contribute to their lifelong learning.

探索儿童和青少年精神病学住院医生在虚拟现实模拟培训中的经验：一项定性研究。

背景：利用虚拟现实模拟技术对医疗保健专业人员进行非技术性技能培训，可以提高专业发展和医疗质量。本研究旨在探讨儿童与青少年精神病学住院医生使用虚拟现实模拟技术进行非技术性技能培训的经验：研究采用探索性定性设计。通过观察 13 名儿童与青少年精神病学住院医生参与三次虚拟现实模拟课程的情况，然后通过两个焦点小组收集数据。数据采用反思性主题分析法进行分析：结果：分析揭示了以下三个主题：1）教学原则的重要性；2）游戏和动作影响学习；3）观察学习有助于终身学习：结论：基于虚拟现实的模拟被认为是培训儿童和青少年精神病学住院医生非技术性技能的适当方法。尤其是，该干预措施满足了住院医生通过观察和同行讨论进行学习的愿望和需求。然而，一些与技术问题和情景内容相关的挑战也凸显出来。这种方法不仅可以提高住院医生的自我效能感和能力，还有助于他们的终身学习。
