Neurology in the psychiatry Boards
Abstract
On the basis of his experience as an examiner, the author discusses the problems encountered in assessing psychiatrists' abilities in clinical neurology for certification by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. Hoping to stimulate discussion among trainees, training programs, and the Board, he outlines five paradigms designed to survey neurological knowledge and skill potentially needed by psychiatrists in various situations; these are reduced to specific topics on which Board candidates should be questioned. Relationships between training and examination expectations are discussed.
