Only 4.08% of respondents correctly answered all 3 fundamental knowledge-based questions. Nearly two-thirds (62.39%) of respondents reported rarely or never screening for PAE. Common reasons for not screening for PAE included lack of resources, and time constraints in primary care appointments.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The fundamental knowledge gap, related lack of PAE screening, and insufficient graduate medical education training identified in this study highlight the need for ongoing training regarding FASD for military family physicians.
