A sample of 3000 pediatricians who had completed their residency training in 1978 or later were surveyed regarding the perception of the adequacy of their residency training in specific aspects of pediatric practice and in a number of subspecialty areas. The survey was almost identical with the one that formed the basis for the American Academy of Pediatrics Task Force on Pediatric Education report in 1978. The results revealed relatively little change in the high rates of perceived "insufficient training" in all the areas of pediatrics described as "underemphasized" in the Task Force report. However, those residents who received their training during the second half of the 10 years since the Task Force survey reported significant improvement in the previously underemphasized areas of developmental and behavioral pediatrics and adolescent medicine. Results also revealed a significant increase in the number of pediatricians who identify either a subspecialty interest or subspecialty practice in developmental or behavioral pediatrics. The increase in pediatric subspecialists and the improved training experience since 1984 indicate that the Task Force report may have had a positive impact on residency training in developmental and behavioral pediatrics.
对3000名在1978年或之后完成住院医师培训的儿科医生进行了调查，询问他们对住院医师培训在儿科实践的特定方面以及一些亚专业领域是否充分的看法。该调查与1978年美国儿科学会儿科教育特别工作组报告所依据的调查几乎相同。结果显示，在特别工作组报告中被描述为“未得到充分重视”的所有儿科领域，认为“培训不足”的比例较高，且变化相对较小。然而，那些在特别工作组调查后的10年下半年接受培训的住院医师报告称，在之前未得到充分重视的发育与行为儿科学以及青少年医学领域有了显著改善。结果还显示，确定对发育或行为儿科学有亚专业兴趣或从事亚专业实践的儿科医生数量显著增加。自1984年以来儿科亚专科医生数量的增加以及培训经历的改善表明，特别工作组报告可能对发育与行为儿科学的住院医师培训产生了积极影响。
