The Child Psychologist and the Pediatric Residency Program

Sophie Pierog MD1 and Austin C. Hill PhD1

Anders,1 noted that pediatrics and child psychiatry have, in the past, shown little ability to collaborate. The unfortunate effects of this lack of collaboration have been brought into focus in the report of the Task Force on Pediatric Education,2 which notes that "about half of young pediatricians rated their residency as providing insufficient experience with psychosocial and behavioral problems," and indicated a need for information about normal and abnormal growth and development patterns, psychological testing, psychotherapy, psychopharmacology, parenting and behavioral change.
