Women senior registrars in psychiatry: background and career intentions
An inquiry was made of all women senior registrars in general psychiatry who were known to be planning to remain in psychiatry in this country.

Many anticipated difficulties in realizing their ambitions because of being tied to one particular area on account of their husbands' employment. A number of solutions to this problem are suggested.
