The lead researcher surveyed certified childbirth educators ( = 266) using modified versions of the Attitudes Towards Implicit Bias Instrument (ATIBI) and the CPD-REACTION Questionnaire. Most study participants (73%) reported they have participated in implicit bias education (IBE). Using a hierarchal regression, the lead researcher evaluated if years as a childbirth educator, ATIBI scores, and participation in IBE were associated with the intention to incorporate self-monitoring of implicit bias into practice. The findings of this study show that IBE increases the intention to self-monitor in childbirth educators by way of improved attitudes toward implicit bias (adjusted = .430, < .05) and suggest requirements for childbirth educators are justified.

Recent studies utilized virtual reality (VR) as an "empathy machine" to mitigate bias towards various social groups. However, studies addressing bias against physical disabilities remain scarce, with inconsistent results based on VR experience design. Moreover, most studies assumed the universal effects of VR simulation on bias reduction, ignoring the potential moderating effects of individual characteristics.

Implicit bias in assessment must be addressed because medical educators use assessments to guide learning and promote development of physicians' careers.
