Educating primary care physicians about eating disorders: Pilot data from a microlearning programme.

Findings from the current study lend support to the use of microlearning in medical health professional training; notably around complex mental health concerns. Microlearning appears to be an acceptable and effective training method for GPs to learn about EDs. Given the significant time demands on GPs and the resulting challenges in designing appropriate training for this part of the workforce, this training method has promise. The pre-existing interest in EDs in the current study sample was high; future studies should sample more broadly to ensure that microlearning can be applied at scale.
