| The Teaching of Psychiatry as Applied to Pediatrics: Proposals Based on a Report Prepared by the Education Committee, Canadian Paediatric Society | |||||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||||
| With changing patterns of pediatric practice, the practising physician needs to acquire a deeper understanding of the emotional and intellectual development of the child. Skill is also required in the techniques of interviewing and counselling parents, and, with a knowledge of the origin of behavioural disorders, in treating these disorders. The Education Committee of the Canadian Paediatric Society was asked to survey the present teaching of psychiatry as applied to pediatrics in all Canadian medical schools. Based on this survey and other studies, a training program for undergraduate medical students and graduates is proposed. | |||||||||||
