Abstract

Teaching and clinical supervision of family therapy can enhance a resident's clinical skills and also promote movement from a linear, reductionistic type of thinking to a dynamic understanding of complex systems. Second-year postgraduate residents who completed a 10-month family therapy program were tested for their ability to understand family systems dynamics with the Family Therapy Assessment Exercise. Comparison of their test results before and after the program indicated significant improvement, which was entirely accounted for by improvement in the area of therapeutic skills.
