title: Training in Psychosocial Issues: Survey of family medicine graduates.
abstract: In a survey of family practice graduates, all provided supportive psychotherapy. Most were satisfied with their abilities to deal with problems such as depression or grief reactions, but many were dissatisfied with their abilities to deal with problems such as chronic pain syndrome and family violence. The most helpful learning experiences were seeing patients in the family medical centers and Balint seminars. Respondents' suggestions have implications for curriculum revision and continuing medical education.
