Abstract
Concurrent with the publication of the Eleventh Edition of the American Society of Clinical Psychopharmacology (ASCP) Model Curriculum for Training Directors and Teachers of Psychopharmacology in Psychiatric Residency Programs in December 2020, as well as continued advances in translational neuroscience and psychopharmacologic practice, it is time to focus on changes in how psychopharmacology is taught (Glick. Model psychopharmacology curriculum for training directors and teachers of psychopharmacology in psychiatric residency programs. American Society of Clinical Psychopharmacology, 2020). Other than individual papers on teaching psychopharmacology, the last major journal publication with a focus on psychopharmacology education was the 2005 Special Issue of Academic Psychiatry (Zisook et al. Acad Psychiatry. 29(2):141–54, 2005; Glick and Zisook. Acad Psychiatry. 29(2):141–54, 2005). This chapter covers educational objectives for a psychopharmacology curriculum. In addition, this chapter discusses what to teach, how to teach, when to teach, in what settings, and how to evaluate for clinical competency. Our goal is to provide ideas for both new and established residency programs to help with developing, innovating, or updating their psychopharmacology didactic and clinical education programs.
