Abstract
SummaryA Pan-European group of psychiatric trainees conducted a semi-structured web-based survey of factors influencing decision-making in relation to antipsychotic, antidepressant and mood stabilizer prescribing. The acceptance of such a survey is in itself a positive result. In the current climate of evidence based medicine and guidelines, preliminary results from this survey suggest that, when asked regarding treatment choice for themselves, psychiatry trainees preferred second-generation atypical antipsychotic medication, based on perceived efficacy. The results for mood stabilisers were less striking. The relevance of this survey, in the context of recent evidence, may relate to trainees’ perceptions as opposed to evidence base.
