Background: Clinical simulation is a strategy with broad support especially when face-to-face medical attention is difficult. In Psychiatry, the use and availability of simulation is lower than in other medical specialties, even for remote teaching. Aim: To report a pedagogical experience whose objective was to develop and implement the simulated patient technique as a teaching strategy for psychopathology and face-to-face Psychiatry for Psychiatry residents and remote for undergraduate medical students. Material and Methods: Six residents and 115 medical students participated in the activity. A descriptive qualitative-quantitative study was designed. Surveys were used to measure the quality and satisfaction of clinical simulation and simulation in psychopatho- logy and psychiatry. In addition, an opinion was requested about the activity. All residents and 104 students participated in the assessment. Results: The simulations were satisfactorily evaluated. The participants perceived that the pedagogical activity favored the development of generic competencies and specific skills for general Psychiatry. Conclusions: Simulation in Psychiatry does not replace face-to-face practical teaching, but it is a transitional and complementary method for clinical activities.
