Improving uncertainty tolerance in medical students: A scoping review
This paper is a scoping review outlining the educational interventions developed and evaluated that aim to enhance uncertainty tolerance in medical students. It provides examples of the interventions developed.
Extract from Abstract:
Uncertainty is an inevitable part of medical practice. An ability to tolerate uncertainty is viewed as a key competency across many health-care systems. Poor uncertainty tolerance (UT) has been linked to negative outcomes including reduced psychological well-being in medical students. A variety of medical education interventions have been developed with the intention of increasing medical students' UT. However, there is no synthesis of these studies available to inform education and research practice. Our aim was to conduct a scoping review of medical education interventions that evaluate their impact on UT.
