The core curriculum of behavioral medicine has been proposed by the working group of Japanese Society of Behavioral Medicine. Most of the items of the curriculum were covered by the curriculum that should be experienced by certified psychosomatic physicians. Therefore, certified psychosomatic physicians could play an important role in the medical education for behavioral medicine, which is gaining increasing social attention.
