Abstract	Objective: To compare personality traits of psychiatry residents with various characteristics. Method: The authors administered Cloninger's personality inventory to residents at two schools. Results: There were no trait differences between international medical graduates (IMGs) and U.S. medical graduates (USMGs) or those for whom psychiatry was a first or second choice. Conclusion: Perceived differences between IMG and USMG psychiatry residents appear unrelated to personality. (Contains 2 tables.) (As Provided).
