title: Survey of the cross-cultural content of U.S. psychiatry residency training programs.
abstract: To establish the extent of cross-cultural content contained in the 224 psychiatric residency training programs, the Directors of Residency Training were surveyed by mail. Thirty-seven percent (N = 83) of Directors responded; 92% (N = 76) had cross-cultural content, 99% (N = 82) had opportunities to work with minority patients, and 77% (N = 64) had supervision by some minority faculty. Responding programs reported a need for teaching videotapes (85%, N = 71), cross-cultural references (78%, N = 65), academic psychiatrists familiar with different cultural groups (76%, N = 63), and cross-cultural supervision (75%, N = 62).
