Purpose: This study investigates whether data available at the time of residency application can be used to predict more accurately future problems of performance, both during and after residency.
Method: The authors identified all residents with reported problematic behavior across 20 years (1987-2007) at a single residency program and created a set of matched controls. Problems were further divided into "major" (leading to significant disruptions of performance and disciplinary action) and "minor" (remediable and resolved).
Objective: The authors review the more than 30-year history of the academic affiliation between the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas and the Mental Health Service at the Veterans Affairs North Texas Health Care System.
Methods: The authors interviewed individuals involved at various stages in developing this affiliation about decisions and challenges.
Results: The academic association has been very successful on the whole, though not consistently so.
Objective: To analyze the educational and ethical issues involved in interactions between departments of psychiatry and the pharmaceutical industry.
Methods: The author analyzes the history of attitudes toward pharmaceutical companies, various conflicting ethical principles that apply, and areas of confluence and conflict of interest between psychiatric education and the drug industry. These attitudes are applied to a variety of specific types of interactions with representatives of the pharmaceutical industry.
