Abstract
The study aimed to investigate whether an orientation session for orthopedic residents could mitigate stereotype threat, which occurs when individuals encounter negative stereotypes associated with their group identity during learning experiences. The intervention involved dual orientation sessions focused on responding during teaching rounds and surgery (OR). Participants' perceptions of stereotype threat were evaluated using 14 questions, with higher scores indicating greater experiences of stereotype threat. A total of 98 residents were part of the nonintervention group, while 54 participated in the intervention. Both groups scored similarly for poor perceptions of teaching performance (58 for nonintervention vs. 58.4 for intervention, p = 0.95) and OR (58 for nonintervention vs. 58.4 for intervention, p = 0.94). Poor teaching performance was associated with stereotype threat, leading to low self-esteem among residents. However, the simple orientation did not reduce stereotype threat significantly. Future research should explore longer-term interventions to enhance performance during teaching rounds and OR. Withdrawal symptoms, such as decreased motivation to address knowledge gaps and reduced participation in OR and teaching rounds, may ensue, potentially leading to burnout and psychiatric morbidity due to poor performance
