Dept. of Psychiatry IDEAs Seminar: Breaking the Bias Habit®: Bias Reduction in Medicine (May 18, 2023)

Madison, WI US
May 18, 2023

Presented in conjunction with the University of Wisconsin-Madison Inclusion in Science & Engineering Leadership Institute

Note: this session is In-Person ONLY

This workshop-format seminar will introduce faculty and staff to the concepts of implicit or unconscious biases and assumptions about diverse groups of people by treating the application of such biases as a “habit,” with a focus on race, ethnicity, and gender. Participants will uncover their own biases, discover the underlying concepts and language used in the psychological and social psychological literature to describe such processes, participate in interactive discussions about the potential influence of implicit or unconscious bias in their department/unit, and learn evidence-based strategies for reducing the application of these biases. 

Intended Audience

This activity is designed by and for physicians, nurses, NPs, PAs, psychologists, social workers, staff and trainees in the Department of Psychiatry. 

Learning Objectives

After participating in the BRIM workshop, attendees should be able to: 

  1. Describe how cultural stereotypes can lead to cognitive habits that advantage some groups and disadvantage other groups in academic science and medicine
  2. Recognize and name at least three ways group stereotypes can bias perceptions and judgments
  3. Practice at least three strategies found to help break the bias
