title: [Mental Health Residents 2000. Their opinion about their training six years after a previous survey].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To assess the subjective perception of Clinical Psychology and Psychiatry Residents from Buenos Aires regarding their training in the year 2000.
  
  
  METHODS
  During the Seventh Annual Meeting of Mental Health Residents from the metropolitan area of Buenos Aires, an anonymous and self completed survey was carried out by Clinical Psychology and Psychiatry Residents. These quantitative results were combined with a qualitative analysis of Residents' papers published in a previous article.
  
  
  RESULTS
  62% of the sample answered the survey. 90% of Clinical Psychology Residents and 77% of Psychiatry Residents are satisfied with their clinical training. Regarding their theoretical training, Psychology and Psychiatry Residents are pleased in 52% and 43% of cases respectively. Both think clinical presentations are more important to share than clinical practice itself. Only 6% see themselves as being prepared for conducting any kind of research. Mental Health Residents desire and believe that it is possible to work in private practice at the end of their training and only 36% of cases see the hospital as part of their future work.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Psychiatry Residents are increasingly separating themselves from the Psychologists with an increased satisfaction with their training. This transformation has taken place simultaneously with a greater compromise of Mental Health Residents with the activities that gather all Metropolitan Area Residents and an updated psychiatric curricula
