FIGURE 2.

Percentage of responses to survey questions about the satisfaction of the participants with the web‐based courses. The figure shows the percentage of respondents for each survey question regarding satisfaction with the web‐based courses. The questionnaire contained seven questions answered by the same 170 participants in both the schizophrenia and major depressive disorder courses. Each question is shown in Table S3. Each question was rated on a scale ranging from 1 to 5 for all questions, with higher values indicating better evaluation or preference for the web‐based course over the face‐to‐face course. The five levels were categorized into two groups of scores, namely, 1–3 and 4–5, and analyzed with Fisher's exact test. The statistical comparisons were between the percentage of responses to the “general evaluation” and the percentage of responses to other questions in the same course and between the percentage of responses to the same questions in the schizophrenia and major depressive disorder courses. Since there were multiple comparisons, the Bonferroni method was applied for correction, with two‐sided p < 1.02 × 10⁻³. Statistically significant differences in the percentage of responses to a particular question compared to the percentage of responses to “general evaluation” in the same course are indicated by *. In the schizophrenia course, there were more favorable responses to the web‐based course in “participation,” “understanding: lectures,” “understanding: discussion,” and “communication: lecturer” to “general evaluation.” In the major depressive disorder course, there were more favorable responses to the web‐based course in “understanding: lectures,” “understanding: discussion,” and “general evaluation.” There were no significant differences between the percentage of responses for the same question across the schizophrenia course and the major depressive disorder course.
