One-hundred seventy-seven family physicians were surveyed regarding their perceptions of the types of psychosocial problems encountered in their practices, the amount of time they felt they devoted to each problem, and their interests regarding continuing psychiatric education. Patients with "multiple somatic complaints" and "symptoms of emotional distress" were reported as being encountered most frequently. Marital and family problems, alcoholism and sexual dysfunction were also ranked highly. The physicians indicated the highest interest in managing these disorders in addition to treatment of the suicidal patient. The implications of these results for psychiatric educators and liaison psychiatrists are discussed. The authors recommend using DSM-III diagnostic criteria applicable to these syndromes in formulating educational programs for primary care physicians.
