Abstract
Does self-selection explain why residency-trained family physicians show a stronger patient, social, and multidisciplinary orientation than other physicians? Responses to a questionnaire mailed to 235 senior medical students entering internships or family medicine residencies showed significant differences only in multidisciplinary orientation. The study indirectly suggests that residency training does affect physicians' attitudes.
