Self‐Efficacy of General Practitioner Family Physicians in Mental Health Services: A Cross‐Sectional Study in Turkey

General practitioners acknowledge that mental health services are a primary care responsibility. However, there is a need to increase their self-efficacy in providing mental health services at the primary care level. Since all participants in this study were public employees, continuing mandatory postgraduate mental health training is crucial. Additionally, strengthening collaboration and coordination mechanisms, as well as providing more effective referrals to community mental health centers, is essential. These efforts will significantly contribute to improving the community's mental health.
