title: Psychiatric residency, role models, and leadership.
abstract: Two hundred fifty ex-fellowship psychiatrists answered a questionnaire on their administrative and other professional experiences during and after residency as part of a study to determine the relationship between psychiatric training experiences and interest in administration. A large majority of subjects had had role models during training. The subjects' interest in administration had grown significantly during residency in the direction of their role models' interest. Postresidency interest in administration was significantly correlated with supervision by a psychiatrist administrator and with the number of hours subjects spent on administrative work.
