1. Attention is called to various types of residency training involving several educational groups.2. The growth and goals of the Associated Psychiatric Faculties of Chicago are described briefly.3. The importance of selection is stressed and the experiment in group interviewing presented. Improved criteria for more specific selection are being developed. An enlarged concept of responsibility to students is vital. They should receive much more guidance and direction so that they may be spared unnecessary hardships. The training (preparatory) analysis itself is probably the best means of selection if training groups could act on their own findings.4. The need for more and better training facilities through building up " city-wide interinstitutional" medical centers is presented so that training may be provided for nonpsychiatrists as well as psychiatrists at all levels.5. The need for more training and interest in investigation is emphasized. The advantages of university affiliations to promote these objectives seem apparent.Abstract Teaser
