心理健康临床医生的任务是诊断和治疗全球数百万寻求心理健康问题帮助的人。本文调查了临床医生对病人信息的记忆。我们假设,临床医生通过经验将心理健康知识封装成更抽象的概念,就像在其他领域一样,与非专业人员相比,临床医生对患者的记忆发生了变化。我们在经验丰富的临床医生、受过中等训练的研究生和外行中测试了现实的患者-治疗师互动的记忆。临床医生回忆起的事实比中级培训生少,与外行一样多。此外,临床医生报告了更多的抽象信息比所有其他参与者,提供了第一个经验证明的知识封装在内存中的心理健康临床医生。我们讨论了我们的研究结果如何适合现有的文献中的临床专业知识在心理健康和我们的研究结果的影响,为未来的研究相关的精神卫生保健。版权所有© 2012约翰威利父子有限公司.
Mental health clinicians are tasked to diagnose and treat the millions of people worldwide seeking help for mental health issues. This paper investigates the memory clinicians have for patient information. We hypothesize that clinicians encapsulate mental health knowledge through experience into more abstract concepts, as in other domains changing what clinicians remember about patients compared with non‐professionals. We tested memory for realistic patient–therapist interactions in experienced clinicians, intermediately trained graduate students, and laypeople. Clinicians recalled fewer facts than intermediate trainees and as many as laypeople. Furthermore, clinicians reported more abstracted information than all other participants, providing the first empirical demonstration of knowledge encapsulation in the memory of mental health clinicians. We discuss how our results fit into the existing literature on clinical expertise in mental health and the implications of our findings for future research relevant to mental health care.
