Psychiatrists were somewhat (although not necessarily significantly) more likely than the other female physicians to report having had personal or family histories of various psychiatric disorders.
Psychiatrists were more likely to have a solo practice and less likely to be in a group practice.
Psychiatrists did not differ from the other female physicians in perceived work amount, work stress, work control, or career satisfaction.
Their satisfaction with their specialty was, however, greater than that of the other female physicians.
