Education in Sports Medicine: A resident perspective.

The relative frequency with which family medicine residents managed several sports-related problems, their level of comfort with each of the conditions, and the sources of information they planned to use to improve their knowledge or skills were studied. Pearson correlation analysis revealed that residents reported greater comfort with conditions they saw most often. Reading was the preferred information source regardless of the clinical problem. The choice of information source did not differ by the frequency with which the condition was seen by the resident.
