Discrimination Experiences Among Medical Students
In this cross-sectional study of US medical students, Asian, Black, and Hispanic female MSWD were more likely to report general and race-based discrimination, whereas White and Asian female MSWD were more likely to report gender-based discrimination during medical school. These findings highlight the need to address intersecting forms of discrimination for medical students with disabilities.
