For several years there has been ongoing discussion in the psychiatric literature of a presumed decline in the teaching ofpsychodynamic psychiatry in psychiatry residency training programs. Studies that have quantitatively focused on this subject are reviewed in this article. The author presents the results of a 1988-1989 survey of directors of psychiatry residency training programs dealing with this subject and related questions. The findings of the study are analyzed and discussed.
