AI Article Synopsis
- The number of healthcare organizations implementing implicit bias training is increasing, with a systematic review analyzing 77 studies from 2003 to 2022.
- Most training programs focus on race/ethnicity, but a majority lack precision in addressing implicit prejudice, and last around 5-6 hours, often held in one day.
- These trainings show significant methodological flaws and translation gaps, raising concerns about their overall effectiveness and reliability in reducing bias.
Article Abstract
The number of health care educational institutions/organizations adopting implicit bias training is growing. Our systematic review of 77 studies (published 1 January 2003 through 21 September 2022) investigated how implicit bias training in health care is designed/delivered and whether gaps in knowledge translation compromised the reliability and validity of the training. The primary training target was race/ethnicity (49.3%); trainings commonly lack specificity on addressing implicit prejudice or stereotyping (67.5%). They involved a combination of hands-on and didactic approaches, lasting an average of 343.15 min, often delivered in a single day (53.2%). Trainings also exhibit translational gaps, diverging from current literature (10 to 67.5%), and lack internal (99.9%), face (93.5%), and external (100%) validity. Implicit bias trainings in health care are characterized by bias in methodological quality and translational gaps, potentially compromising their impacts.
