This study introduces a six-point framework to help health professions education programs integrate implicit bias recognition and management. This actionable approach aims to improve curricula and patient outcomes by addressing bias effectively.

Area of Science:

  • Health Professions Education
  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Medical Ethics

Background:

  • Implicit bias literature is fragmented across disciplines.
  • Health professions education has underexplored implicit bias-informed approaches.
  • Existing evaluation tools are insufficient for implicit bias curricula.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose an actionable, six-point framework for integrating implicit bias recognition and management into health professions education.
  • To provide practical tools for curriculum developers.
  • To guide the meaningful integration of implicit bias topics into health professions curricula.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a six-point actionable framework.
  • Inclusion of practical tools for curriculum developers.
