The review reports that Marcussen et al. investigated interprofessional training in a psychiatric ward and "the intervention group showed significant improvements in all three subscales" of the AITCS. No effect sizes were printed for these improvements.

"the study by Marcussen et al. [72] investigated the impact of interprofessional training on students’ readiness for interprofessional collaboration in a psychiatric ward and demonstrated that the intervention group showed significant improvements in all three subscales (Partnership/Shared decision making, Cooperation and Coordination) of the Assessment of Interprofessional Team Collaboration Scale (AITCS)."
