Abstract: Objective　To understand and analyze the current status of teaching outpatient clinics in psychiatric resident training bases in Guangdong Province, providing references for the quality construction of these bases.Methods　A questionnaire survey was conducted targeting resident instructors participating in the 2024 Guangdong Province Psychiatric Resident Physician Backbone Teacher Training Program. The survey covered areas such as participants' basic information, the current status of teaching clinics in their respective institutions, and their willingness to engage in teaching clinic activities.Results　A total of 104 valid questionnaires were included in the analysis. Among the respondents, 80 (76.92%) were aware of the psychiatric teaching clinic; 45 (43.27%) reported that their institution had established a psychiatric teaching clinic; 101 (97.12%) expressed interest in developing a psychiatric teaching clinic; 48 (46.15%) preferred a guidance model for the teaching clinic, where residents mainly see patients, with the supervising faculty providing assistance; 40 (38.46%) and 33 (31.73%) identified challenges in tiered teaching and residents independently managing patients as the main difficulties in implementing a teaching clinic; 62 (59.62%) considered the most difficult educational objective in a psychiatric teaching clinic to be mastering clinical psychiatric thinking and skills; 38 (36.54%) and 35 (33.65%) believed that the most needed training content for residents was systematic analysis and interview skills; 75 (72.12%) indicated that the key areas for improvement in psychiatric teaching clinics were standardizing the learning and training of teaching clinics, providing support and incentives (such as financial and promotion policies) for faculty, and strengthening the publicity of teaching clinics.Conclusion　The awareness of psychiatric teaching outpatient services is relatively high, but there is still room for further improvement. The standardization and prioritization of teaching outpatient services need to be enhanced.
