Although emotional cues like facial emotion expressions seem to be important in social interaction, there is no specific training about emotional cues for psychiatrists. Here, we aimed to investigate psychiatrists' ability of facial emotion recognition and relation with their clinical identification as psychotherapy-psychopharmacology oriented or being adult and childhood-adolescent psychiatrist.
Facial Emotion Recognition Test was performed to 130 psychiatrists that were constructed by a set of photographs (happy, sad, fearful, angry, surprised, disgusted and neutral faces) from Ekman and Friesen's.
Psychotherapy oriented adult psychiatrists were significantly better in recognizing sad facial emotion (p=.003) than psychopharmacologists while no significant differences were detected according to therapeutic orientation among child-adolescent psychiatrists (for each, p>.05). Adult psychiatrists were significantly better in recognizing fearful (p=.012) and disgusted (p=.003) facial emotions than child-adolescent psychiatrists while the latter were better in recognizing angry facial emotion (p=.008).
For the first time, we have shown some differences on psychiatrists' facial emotion recognition ability according to therapeutic identification and being adult or child-adolescent psychiatrist. It would be valuable to investigate how these differences or training the ability of facial emotion recognition would affect the quality of patient-clinician interaction and treatment related outcomes.
尽管诸如面部表情等情绪线索在社交互动中似乎很重要，但针对精神科医生尚无关于情绪线索的专门培训。在此，我们旨在调查精神科医生对面部情绪的识别能力，以及其与以心理治疗 - 精神药理学为导向或作为成人及儿童 - 青少年精神科医生的临床识别之间的关系。
对130名精神科医生进行面部情绪识别测试，该测试由一组来自埃克曼和弗里森的照片（开心、悲伤、恐惧、愤怒、惊讶、厌恶和中性表情的面孔）构成。
以心理治疗为导向的成人精神科医生在识别悲伤面部情绪方面（p = 0.003）显著优于精神药理学家，而在儿童 - 青少年精神科医生中，根据治疗导向未检测到显著差异（每项，p>0.05）。成人精神科医生在识别恐惧（p = 0.012）和厌恶（p = 0.003）面部情绪方面显著优于儿童 - 青少年精神科医生，而后者在识别愤怒面部情绪方面表现更好（p = 0.008）。
我们首次表明，根据治疗识别以及作为成人或儿童 - 青少年精神科医生，精神科医生在面部情绪识别能力上存在一些差异。研究这些差异或对面部情绪识别能力进行培训如何影响患者 - 临床医生互动的质量和治疗相关结果将是有价值的。
