Impact of Mental Imagery on the Non-technical Skills of Anaesthesia Residents

The goal of this randomized trial is to learn if mental imagery works to improve non technical skills in residents. It will also learn about knowledge and technical skills. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does mental imagery of a cognitive aid improve non technical skills of residents ? Does mental imagery of a cognitive aid improve technical skills and knowledge of residents ? The invastigators will compare repeated mental imagery to repeated simple reading of a cognitive aid to see if mental imagery works to train non technical skills. Participants will: * participate in an initial training on neonatal resuscitation * be randomized in two groups: mental imagery or simple reading * Repeat training according to the group with predefined intervalls during 6 months * be evaluated 6 months after the initial training
