Interprofessional education (IPE) promotes collaboration among health professionals to combat health disparities. This study explored differences in self-efficacy and cultural competence among a sample of preclinical entry-level Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) students based on curriculum format (traditional or IPE) and examined differences in age and gender as related to self-efficacy and cultural competence.
