Abstract
Two articles published in this issue of Academic Psychiatry make useful additions to the literature on the role of chief residents in psychiatry education.

This exploratory study noted a wide variation in patient requirements for each area of psychotherapy for competency determination. Also, 54% of chief residents who responded to the survey reported a
