| Abstract: | A rotation on a consultation-liaison team can provide the intern with a varied experience and exposure to the diversity of psychological concomitants of medical illness as well as more purely psychological problems. The intern's training also provides the opportunity to teach other team members about psychological factors that may be operative in their patients. Potential conflicts arising from differences between the training of psychiatry and psychology team members and the divergence between the medical and behavioral or social-developmental models are noted.
