A Comparison of the Emphasis Given to Nine Therapies in Residency Training and Later Practice of Psychiatrists.

Careter, Ross E.

Academic Medicine, v65 n10 p649-51 Oct 1990

A study compared emphasis given to various therapies in 6 psychiatry residencies (n=29 students) and by 87 practicing psychiatrists. Time allocations to therapies were relatively consistent among but not within programs. Highly trained and less highly trained practitioners extended their practices to therapies in which they were not extensively trained. (Author/MSE)
