N2 - The educational experience of medical students taking a 6-week clerkship in consultation psychiatry was augmented by clinical simulations. Using a microcomputer program and a video-display terminal the students are confronted with an actual case and asked to make specific recommendations. The program records their answers and then indicates what the consultant actually did. This method broadens the student's clinical exposure, provides prompt feedback, frees staff to supervise live patient contact, and offers the possibility of sharing clinical problems with other centers.
