Aims and methodAccumulating evidence suggest that psychiatrists may be at greater risk of being stalked compared with the general population. We used a self-administered questionnaire to survey psychiatrists in Ireland about their experiences, practices and attitudes regarding work-related stalking.ResultsWe found that 25.1% of psychiatrists in Ireland had been the subject of stalking behaviour at some point in their career. At the time of the survey, 5.5% of respondents were actively being stalked. The majority of the stalking occurred in the workplace and most of the perpetrators were patients. Most of the victims were unaware of guidelines or other supportive mechanisms in their workplace. Of those who reported their experiences to authorities, almost half were not satisfied with the support they received.Clinical implicationsStalking of psychiatrists is not uncommon. Employers should put in place supportive structures backed up by education and training to reduce the incidence, associated morbidity and other wider consequences of stalking.

Aims and MethodWe explored the contribution of trainees to the Psychiatric Bulletin by estimating the nature and proportion of papers by trainees published during a 5-year period: 2000–2004.ResultsNearly a third (30.7%) of all papers published during the 5 years were authored/co-authored by trainees. The predominant contribution was to education and training papers (66% of all the papers in this section), original papers (46%) and drug information quarterly papers (30%). The proportions of papers by trainees remained fairly consistent across the 5 years.Clinical ImplicationsOverall, the Psychiatric Bulletin appears to be ‘trainee-friendly’ and this should encourage trainees to submit papers to the Bulletin.

Affective occupational commitment (AOC) during training is considered to prevent occupational turnover and positively influence later work-related outcomes and learning processes. However, little is known about AOC development in a training context. This study examines antecedents and consequences of AOC and its development during vocational education and training. Participants were 497 Swiss apprentices who took part in a longitudinal survey throughout their 3-year training program. The results of latent growth curve modeling showed a slight average decrease in AOC over time. Initial AOC was negatively related to occupational turnover intention and positively related to satisfaction with the apprenticeship. Perceived person–occupation fit and feelings of competence during in-company training were positively correlated with initial AOC. Change in AOC was the smallest when apprentices felt autonomous and larger when they felt competent. The results indicate how in-company training environments can be arranged that foster apprentices’ AOC.

Aims and methodA baseline audit of trainees' ability to recognise Wernicke's encephalopathy and initiate appropriate thiamine regimes in an in-patient alcohol detoxification unit was carried out. Based on the findings, gaps were addressed using targeted education and training, and their impact on improving standards of managing Wernicke's encephalopathy was re-audited.ResultsThe initial audit revealed that trainees' ability to recognise Wernicke's encephalopathy and initiate thiamine was inadequate. Significant improvement in appropriate use of treatment regime (P < 0.05) of thiamine and the monitoring of clinical response was observed after addressing the initial gaps through education.Clinical implicationsTreatment of Wernicke's encephalopathy can be inadequate, given a lack of awareness of clinical presentation and appropriate management. This can be addressed through education and training.

Translator and interpreter study programmes are characterised by their practice-oriented nature; in fact, students seem to have a somewhat reticent attitude towards Translation Theory in part due to their perception of the respective modules as less important because they are relegated to a subsidiary position within the course programme. The authors have carried out a research project aimed at investigating the views of students regarding the subject of Translation Theory. The main objective of this project is to identify areas of improvement in the design and teaching methodology in order to provide more dynamic teaching and reinforce the links between the theoretical and practical dimensions of the discipline. The results obtained in this study provide new and unexpected insights into students' conception of translation and translation theory and into the teaching improvements required to make this subject more interesting and valuable in the education and training of translators-to-be.
