Open access. This descriptive study revealed that the representation of ‘psychiatry’ during summer 2012 was predominantly negative. A subsequent smaller re-analysis suggests that the negative portrayal of ‘psychiatry’ on YouTube is a stable phenomenon. The significance of this and how it could be addressed are discussed.
In this context, I am writing to provide some details of my YouTube channel called ‘Psychiatry Lectures’ (www.youtube.com/channel/UCVZhg8unEqo0XUm8cHAIwbA/videos). This is a free-to-access educational channel featuring videos on psychiatry topics targeted at health professionals who see psychiatric patients. So far, I have uploaded 19 videos covering most of the major psychiatry topics, for example, schizophrenia, mood disorders and anxiety disorders. The average duration of the videos is 50 min and most videos end with a set of five multiple choice questions. The videos are in the form of PowerPoint presentations with my narration.
This is a reflection on Yammer, an enterprise social media system. It’s a kind of Facebook for corporations and organisations. Yammer works using your work eMail address. Register with Yammer using your eMail and you are in a space with your co-workers. Yammer is owned by Microsoft and run from their Office division, so you might reasonably expect Yammer to come to a Trust near you in the not too distant future. [copied through automatically]
