This collection includes a variety of materials associated with the origin and history of the International Environmental Communication Association (IECA), along with proceedings and related materials from the Conference on Communication and Environment (COCE) that has been held biennially since 1991. This archive is maintained by Steve Depoe, one of the founders of IECA and the first chair of the organization. Steve is a Professor Emeritus at the University of Cincinnati.
This dataset details the force-displacement response of porcine meniscus under tensile-fracture behavior. Samples are cut from the meniscus's anterior, middle, and posterior regions. Each specimen geometry dimension is included.
Background: Implicit racial bias (IB) in physicians contributes to racial health inequities. Residents are not consistently trained to address IB. Few curricula addressing IB in graduate medical education have been evaluated, especially in the clinical setting.
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to characterize Family Medicine (FM) residents’ experience of employing strategies to mitigate IB during primary care home visits (HVs) to urban, predominately African-American, homebound older adults using a phenomenological approach. The study outcomes will inform ongoing curriculum development.
Methods: FM residents completed pre-work, including taking the Implicit Association Test and evaluating strategies to address IB. Residents applied these strategies during HVs to homebound older adults. Residents completed written reflections about their experiences and commitments-to-change (CTC). A survey two months later assessed completion of targeted actions and barriers faced. Resident focus groups were utilized to enhance themes drawn from reflections. Researchers completed a thematic analysis of this data January-July 2020.
Results: Thematic analysis identified five themes: Response to IAT, barriers, strategies, value of HVs and mindfulness definition. In follow-up surveys, all residents’ stated level of CTC remained the same (9/9, 100%) and 8/9 residents (89%) had partially or fully implemented their intended change at 2 months.
Conclusions: Residents utilized the opportunity to learn and apply strategies to address IB. Residents continued implementing newly-learned strategies in the clinical setting two months after training and applied skills to settings outside of HVs and other bias types. These findings can facilitate development of meaningful, clinically-based IB curricula with lasting impacts.
