To better understand the behavioral determinants of coaching, the objectives of this study were to (a) identify barriers and facilitators of engaging in coaching behaviors using behavior change theories (Behavior Change Wheel, BCW; Theoretical Domains Framework, TDF), and (b) propose relevant interventions and policy changes to facilitate the engagement in coaching behaviors. Using a social constructionist approach, we interviewed 13 clinical teachers with relevant lived coaching experiences. We first used reflexive thematic analysis to analyze the data inductively. Second, we deductively mapped the themes onto the BCW and TDF to identify the behavioral determinants of coaching, relevant interventions, and applicable policy changes. Participants' perceptions of coaching behaviors were captured in six themes pertaining to clinical teachers' capability (a self-directed journey; a balancing act), opportunity (the show must go on; setting the stage), and motivation (call me coach; an audience for coaching). Although clinical teachers had the necessary coaching knowledge and skills, social and environmental constraints limited the practical implementation of these behaviors. This work supports applying behavior change theories in medical education research. Recommendations include shifting interventions beyond targeting individual-level knowledge to fostering coaching-supportive environments, including focusing on training, modelling, and enablement and developing policy-level supports such as guidelines, planning, services, and regulation.</p>","PeriodicalId":50959,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Health Sciences Education","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144052404","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, existing research often only provides abstract recommendations for increasing their participation, without specifying where and how this should occur. This paper applies discourse theory and methods to identify where the incoming physician's active involvement is interactionally appropriate and can be integrated naturally and effectively. Twelve handovers between six pairs of resident physicians were recorded in a simulated ICU setting at a teaching hospital and analyzed using a combination of genre theory and conversation analysis. By first identifying the \"moves\" that constitute the handover genre, we pinpointed places where active participation by the incoming physician is expected and facilitates effective communication. While the tasks and focus points and the questions and consultation moves clearly invite such participation, the clinical situation move requires more negotiation, as the outgoing physician maintains control over the conversational floor, making it less immediately accessible for the incoming physician to contribute. The four remaining moves exhibit a more monologic pattern, where both participants display interactional behavior signaling that active input from the incoming physician is not anticipated. Our findings suggest that medical professionals share an implicit understanding of when participation is appropriate, shaped by conventions of the handover genre itself. By reconstructing these tacit rules through genre theory and conversation analysis, we provide insights that can inform training methods, ensuring that recommendations for active participation by the incoming physician align with the structured expectations of clinical practice.</p>","PeriodicalId":50959,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Health Sciences Education","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144039570","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Individuals are however influenced by the multiple social identities of themselves and others and not just professional hierarchy. Intersectionality offers a useful lens through which to understand the complex influences of students' learning experiences. Using poetic inquiry, this paper explores the influence of intersectionality on health professional students' interprofessional learning experiences on two rural training platforms in South Africa. Sixteen individual interviews with final-year undergraduate students from five different healthcare professions were conducted in 2022. An inductive narrative analysis of the data was undertaken and represented using 'found poems'. Reflexive analysis of the data presented in poems was conducted with student participants, co-authors, and an independent qualitative researcher. Themes related to the intersection of language and ethnicity, religion and profession, culture and profession as well as professional discipline and being a student were extracted from the data. Participants demonstrated disorienting learning experiences in both the clinical and social context. Using intersectionality as a lens, we have gained insight into the sometimes-disorienting influence of students' intersecting social identities during interprofessional learning on two rural training platforms. A nuanced understanding of how multiple social identities intersect to influence experiences could help educators mitigate student and educator biases and understand structural power dynamics in training environments. Transformative learning may be a way to introduce intersectionality into both interprofessional education and health professions education in general.</p>","PeriodicalId":50959,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Health Sciences Education","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143755814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this multi-site study is to examine how clinical teaching activities are organised, in order to reveal if there are underlying systemic factors that may contribute to this wicked problem. This study employed a cross-comparative case study design of one Singaporean and one Canadian medical school. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with organisational leaders (n = 23) who manage clinical teaching activities and/or have insights on their local assessment, support and recognition systems. Public records were also collected from each site (n = 24). A theory-driven content analysis using a complexity science interpretation of the concept of the Hidden Curriculum was conducted with both sets of data. The two sites were at different stages of maturation in respect of clinical teaching evaluation and feedback, support, and recognition and reward systems. Despite this, the interviews identified shared structure, process and culture-oriented challenges: low prioritisation of teaching, faculty demotivation and dissatisfaction across both research sites. Our findings suggest that a continued focus on structure and process-oriented reforms to elicit change is insufficient. Instead, further examination of site-specific, multiple intersecting academic and clinical cultures is needed. Future efforts to improve the value and drive the pursuit of teaching excellence will require multi-faceted structure, process and culture change approaches.

However, the acquisition of nursing skills in educational settings continues to rely heavily on detailed protocols and explicit instructions. This study aimed to examine the necessity for comprehensive protocols in the acquisition of nursing skills. In the context of bandaging techniques, three studies were conducted to investigate whether students who practiced with an instruction card containing minimal instructions (implicit group) performed comparably to the students who practiced with a protocol containing step-by-step instructions (explicit group). Study 1 was designed to determine whether both groups performed equally well in applying a bandage during training. Study 2 and 3 were designed to determine if both groups performed equally well during a retention and transfer (multitasking) test, administered after a series of three training sessions. In comparison with the explicit group, the implicit group demonstrated comparable performance with their practice attempts in Study 1 and performed equally well during the retention and transfer test in Study 2. Furthermore, several results from Study 3 indicated better performance of the implicit group. In conclusion, the use of protocols with explicit step-by-step instructions may not be essential for the acquisition of nursing skills.

Despite extensive research on the struggles faced by junior doctors, there remains a gap in understanding how other key stakeholders perceive this transition and how it can be viewed as more than just a struggle. In this phenomenographic study, we used the Swedish medical internship as a proxy for the transition and explored internship programme directors' (PDs) perceptions of the medical internship from a developmental point of view. A phenomenographic approach was chosen to capture the variation in how PDs conceptualise the meaning of the internship, offering a more nuanced understanding of the transition and its implications for educational practice. Interviews with twelve PDs gave rise to three perceptions: the internship as an education, as working as a doctor, and as a space for learning through work. These views highlighted the transition not merely as a preparatory phase but as a dynamic process in which learning and clinical work were intertwined. Our findings suggest that instead of focusing solely on better preparing students for work, empowering junior doctors to learn through work-supported by structured guidance-can turn this challenging period into an opportunity for professional and personal growth. This study offers a novel contribution by shedding light on the role of PDs in shaping the transition to clinical work and emphasising the need to view it as a learning-centred, reflective experience.</p>","PeriodicalId":50959,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Health Sciences Education","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143626649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
