Abstract
In this survey 92 questionnaires were completed by psychiatric residents in three stages during their four-year residency training at McGill University. Sixty-four percent of the residents were male and 36% female. Twenty-seven participants had other specialty training prior to their psychiatric residency. The residents perceived psychotherapy as the most preferred treatment modality followed by organic therapies. They felt most at ease with neurotic and acute psychotic patients but much less with character disorders. Subspecialties favoured the most were psychoanalysis, child psychiatry, general psychiatry, and psychosomatics. Eighteen percent of the first year residents have consulted psychiatrists, mainly for neurosis.
