Abstract

In 1977, training directors of 55 child psychiatry training programs agreed to provide the Committee on Certification in Child Psychiatry of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, Inc. with confidential data about the clinical performance of each of their graduates in 1978, 1979, and 1980. Information about 267 graduates from 37 programs was received. Almost all programs were university affiliated and located in medical centers. By 1986, 112 of these graduates had taken the child aboard examination. Training director ratings were found to be statistically correlated to a significant degree with actual pass or fail results on the written and on the overall examination.
