| Abstract: | This data would suggest that psychiatric training programs may not be organized according to the interest or needs of many trainees. The emphasis on fulltime research in neurobiological psychiatry is centre stage in most programs, and yet according to our survey, few residents view this as a desirable career path. Our data from 8 years of trainees at the University of Toronto indicates that a new model of training streams would best suit the needs of the trainee, the profession and the community. This report is a continuation of a study into the recruitment process. An earlier report was published in the Canadian Journal of Psychiatry Vol. 29, December 1984. Our present data is on two groups of trainees as well as from faculty. |
