Medical Education about Substance Abuse: Changes in Curriculum and Faculty between 1976 and 1992.

Fleming, Michael; And Others

Academic Medicine, v69 n5 p362-69 May 1994

A 1992 survey of 6 clinical departments in 126 medical schools investigated the status of substance abuse education and number of faculty teaching it. Results were compared with baseline data from two previous surveys and additional studies. Findings indicate positive changes but not comparable to education for other prevalent clinical problems.
