The short communication was titled “Physician Assistant Students’ Unconscious Bias and Patient-centered Attitudes: Are They Related? and included co-authors from the Wake Forest School of Medicine: Jennifer Bailey, Gail Marion, Mark Archambault, Steve Davis, Carol Hildebrandt and Sonia Crandall. The abstract is available at: http://www.amee.org/documents/AMEE%202011%20Abstract%20Book.pdf and highlights the importance of helping future health care professionals identify their implicit biases so they can more effectively integrate patient-centered attitudes and skills in the care of all patients.
