Study on the regulatory effect of the new online Balint group teaching model on the depressive emotions of residents in standardized training programs
Objective To explore the regulatory effect of the"New Online Balint Group"model on depressive symptoms among resident trainees.Methods A total of 118 clinical postgraduate students undergoing standardized resident training at Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine,affiliated with Capital Medical University,were screened using the Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS).Participants with a standard score≥53 were recruited,and 32 were included in a 6-week intervention using the"New Online Balint Group"model.Changes in scores of the Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS),Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey(MBI-HSS),and Coping Style Questionnaire(CSQ)before and after the intervention were compared.Results After the 6-week intervention,there was a significant reduction in SDS and SAS scores(P<0.01),and a decrease in the"emotional exhaustion"and"depersonalization"subscales of the MBI-HSS(P<0.01 and P<0.05,respectively).The CSQ showed an increase in"rationalization"scores(P<0.05),and a decrease in"seeking help"and"fantasizing"scores(P<0.05).Conclusion The"New Online Balint Group"model significantly improved anxiety and depressive symptoms,reduced professional burnout,and enhanced proactivity in problem-solving among medical resident trainees.
