In phase 3, the final program theory was utilized to generate recommendations for implementation.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The final program theory identified 15 contexts, 10 mechanisms, and 10 outcomes along with 43 context-mechanism-outcome configurations. Through analysis of the final program theory, 3 recommendations were generated: (1) programs must first create permission structures for critical self-reflection through strengths-based feedback, (2) programs must consistently and synergistically apply AIn principles at multiple levels, and (3) programs can sustain AIn-based interventions through the deliberate co-design of virtuous cycles.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>This realist evaluation has generated a theory on how AIn may be implemented into rheumatology fellowship programs to drive educational outcomes. Because of the intricate causal relationships, leaders are well-advised to tailor AIn-based interventions based on the context of their training programs.</p>","PeriodicalId":14745,"journal":{"name":"JCR: Journal of Clinical Rheumatology","volume":" ","pages":"e96-e103"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143449114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
