Abstract
The teaching of behavioral science is an integral part of the educatio n of family physicians. This paper presents a model of a program that integrates the teaching of behavioral science with residents' daily ac tivities in their clinical placement. It outlines the format of the pr ogram, the curriculum, teaching methodologies, evaluation and funding. The authors stress the importance of collaboration between family phy sician and psychiatrist in planning and implementing the program.
