Some guidelines for the training of foreign medical graduates: results of a special project
JF Mcdermott Jr and TW Maretzki
Since over one-third of the psychiatric residency positions in the United
states are filled by foreign medical graduates, there is a need to identify
and correct both the emotional and cognitive problems of these medical
trainees. To meet this need the authors describe the findings and
recommendations that resulted from a project involving two psychiatrists
from a southweast Asian country who were given a specially planned year of
training in Hawaii.
