Examining the Unconscious Racial Biases and Attitudes of Physicians, Nurses, and the Public: Implications for Future Health Care Education and Practice

While studies have shown that unconscious bias (UB) is associated with racial health care disparities, its magnitude in the health care workforce has not been examined. Furthermore, there is an absence of studies examining the attitudes of health care workers toward UB, which may have implications for intervention effectiveness. This study aims to address these gaps to further understand the potential scope of impact of UB and interventions designed to address it on patient care.
