Abstract
As many of us served as members of the Council of
Psychiatrists, Colleges of Medicine of South Africa, for the triennium 2017 - 2020, we were keen to understand how workplace experiences and supervision could affect training and examination outcomes in
South African (SA) centres.
We conducted a cross-sectional, descriptive study of registrar
trainees in psychiatry at the University of the Witwatersrand, the
University of Cape Town, the University of KwaZulu-Natal, the
University of Pretoria, the University of the Free State, Stellenbosch
University, the University of Limpopo, and Walter Sisulu University
between 1 June and 30 November 2019. We made use of an
online survey that included questions on bullying/discrimination. All
questions were closed-ended.
