However, teams must learn to work through conflict that can coexist with diverse perspectives. While teamwork evaluation rubrics exist, there is a shortage of curricula offering early healthcare students tools, practice, and structured feedback toward diverse teamwork preparation. This pilot study aimed to assess feasibility of a novel educational rubric.Methods: Our multidisciplinary team synthesized 3 validated rubrics to develop a Diverse Teams Rubric (DTR). We investigated the DTR through a retrospective survey of doctoral physical therapy (DPT) students who had recently completed a team-based course. The survey included the 8-item DTR and 14 questions about DTR feasibility.Results: Of 42 respondents, 89% endorsed the DTR's usefulness in evaluating team effectiveness. 83% reported their team was diverse and 36% reported experiencing microaggressions within past teams. Regarding the DTR, the microaggressions item (\"Team effectively managed microaggressions.\") received the lowest average score.Conclusion: Preliminary findings suggest DPT students find the DTR accessible and useful in promoting team skills within diverse group-learning settings. Students frequently encounter microaggressions in teams and responses suggest increased education is warranted. Next steps include prospective DTR assessment and validation, with particular attention to psychological safety.","PeriodicalId":35979,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Allied Health","volume":"54 3","pages":"e423-e428"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145001551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Respondents also completed one open-ended prompt to describe factors that influenced their belongingness. Overall belongingness scores were reported along with comparative measures using Mann-Whitney U testing, and qualitative data was analyzed using thematic analysis.Results: Students highlighted friendships, team-based learning, fitting in, class size, culture, program activities, and relationships with faculty as factors influencing belongingness within an academic program. Statistical significance for belongingness was found only within the variable of sexual orientation. Students self-identifying as LGBTQ+ reported a lower sense of belongingness in the subcategories of student community, integration, and total overall belongingness scores.Conclusion: The BES-HE is one tool that could be used to measure belongingness and better understand the factors that influence belongingness within a DPT program.","PeriodicalId":35979,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Allied Health","volume":"54 2","pages":"e223-e231"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144267517","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We utilized a repeated measure design and retrospective analysis to examine changes in occupational therapy (OT), physical therapy (PT), and speech-language pathology (SLP) graduate students' self-reported IP competence and perceptions concerning a virtual IPE experience about school-based practice. Students' self-perception of IP competence was measured using the Interprofessional Collaborative Competencies Attainment Survey-Revised (ICCAS-R) and three post-event reflection questions. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlations, post hoc analysis, and ANOVA were used to compare scores on the ICCAS-R and program effect on time. Data from 130 completed surveys revealed that graduate students reported greater agreement on post-ICCAS statements, suggesting greater perceived confidence post-IPE experience. Analyses revealed a statistically significant positive relationship between the number of types of collab¬oration experiences and pre- and post-ICCAS-R scores (p<0.05). An interpretive thematic analysis revealed four main themes from students' self-assessment of their communication and collaboration abilities in team situations. These findings highlight benefits of a virtual IPE experience on graduate students' perceived IP competence in school-based practice. Virtual IPE effectively addresses accreditation standards and supports development of IPEC competencies related to roles and responsibilities, communication, and teamwork.","PeriodicalId":35979,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Allied Health","volume":"54 2","pages":"e133-e140"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144267524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These problems can lead to more substance misuse and affect daily life activities and overall health and wellbeing. Unfortunately, not enough individuals seek treatment due to stigma associated with substance use, partially because of the lack of properly trained and educated healthcare professionals. The researchers developed an interprofessional training program using the Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) to develop learning modules focused on understanding the science of addiction, the stigma related to addictions, and the basic interviewing and assessment techniques to support appropriate substance use intervention and referral. The goal was to prepare ABHP students to appropriately address substance use as part of their future professional practice. The SBIRT learning modules used pre/post test quizzes to collect data on the effectiveness. 140 occupational and physical therapy and mental health counselling students completed the training and the results showed a significant increase in participants knowledge supporting the value of the SBIRT training.","PeriodicalId":35979,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Allied Health","volume":"53 3","pages":"e183-e186"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142297268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The Current State of Prerequisite Coursework in Health Professions Education: Function, Assumptions, and Best Practices for a Path Forward.","authors":"Kimberly L Mace, Kathryn Webster Rogers, Sara D Brown","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"Prerequisite courses have been a staple in admissions requirements for health programs for more than a century. Prerequisites serve various roles including achieving accreditation standards, determining academic preparation, predicting academic success, and informing admissions decisions. While the theories purported to support prerequisite courses have largely remained static, the challenges for educators and applicants have evolved. In addition to training future healthcare providers, contemporary educators are focused on attracting and training a diverse workforce as well as attaining enrollment targets to ensure financial stability. We propose 4 assumptions that pit common prerequisite practices against these contemporary challenges including limitations caused by the cost of prerequisites, disproportionate burden on underrepresented minorities, extraordinarily complex and variable policies, and a disconnect between grades and knowledge retention. Continuing to operate under these assumptions creates unnecessary barriers for potential students. We offer model practices for approaching prerequisites with more flexibility. These practices involve refining expectations for learning, normalizing alternatives to coursework, conducting prospective research, analyzing relevant data, and exploring more personalized pathways and holistic practices. As higher education changes and the demand for healthcare providers increases, innovation to the admissions process is needed to identify those who can complete programs and become competent healthcare providers.","PeriodicalId":35979,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Allied Health","volume":"53 3","pages":"e157-e166"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142297282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we hypothesize that introducing Sukubara will positively affect skeletal muscle mass and physical function. A preliminary verification was carried out on healthy, non-elderly participants who were recruited from the hospital staff. Participants were randomly assigned to two groups for a 12-week intervention: the resistance training group (R group) that performed the Sukubara exercise program and the control group (C group) that did not. This study's primary end¬point was a change in skeletal muscle mass, while the secondary endpoints were knee extension strength and one-leg standing time with eyes closed. An analysis of the 18 participants (R group = 8; C group = 10) was performed. Results showed that skeletal muscle mass, knee extension strength, and one-leg standing time were significantly improved or tended to be significantly higher in the R group than in the C group. Our study concluded that, by incorporating low-load exercise, Sukubara resulted in muscle hypertrophy and improved physical function.","PeriodicalId":35979,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Allied Health","volume":"53 1","pages":"51-57"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140013442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Role of Cognitive and Non-Cognitive Attributes in Doctor of Physical Therapy Student Performance.","authors":"Maureen Conard, Kristin Schweizer","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"Admission to physical therapist education programs (PTEPs) is commonly based on cognitive attributes such as undergraduate grade point average (uGPA), pre-requisite course GPA (pre-req GPA), and sometimes Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores, admissions interviews or essays. The primary purpose of this exploratory study was to examine the relationships between non-cognitive attributes identified through a personality-oriented job analysis (POJA) and Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) student academic performance to improve admissions procedures and DPT student education and training. The present study examined correlations among 12 non-cognitive attributes identified through the POJA and existing cognitive admission criteria, specifically uGPA and pre-req GPA, with DPT grades in the first semester of the PTEP. Multiple regression using non-cognitive attributes in addition to current cognitive admissions criteria showed that uGPA was the strongest predictor of DPT grades, followed by self-reflection and anxiousness/neuroticism (negatively). While uGPA was the strongest predictor of DPT student GPA, it may be valuable to add measures of self-reflection and anxiousness/neuroticism to the admissions process to increase the likelihood of success academically. The present study adds to a still limited body of knowledge of how both cognitive and non-cognitive attributes predict graduate academic performance in a variety of health professions.","PeriodicalId":35979,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Allied Health","volume":"53 3","pages":"188-195"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142297277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
