Abstract

This study reports results from a questionnaire study of 160 psychiatric residents receiving training in the nine institutions; data were obtained on their demographic characteristics and satisfaction with training. Results indicated that a great deal of work remains in improving residency training, both inpatient and outpatient. For example, many residents felt that they received less of the kind and amount of experiences, especially those connected with staff contact, than they thought desirable.
