Keywords: <\/strong>gender bias, sports medicine physician, sexual harassment<\/strong><\/p>\n

This blog provides highlights of a recent paper regarding gender bias in sports medicine (1).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Recently, physician researchers from Japan and the United States worked together to gain a better understanding of gender bias in sports medicine. Similar to previous findings, it was noted that there is a difference in how female sports medicine physicians are treated compared to their male counterparts.\u00a0 Based on the results, sports medicine societies and sporting organizations should develop and implement policies around diversity and inclusion, bullying, harassment, and all forms of discrimination. Annual data should also be collected on these across sport to ensure organizations move toward gender equality and safer work environments for physicians of all genders, races, ethnicities and sexual orientations.<\/p>\n

Why is this study important?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sports medicine operates in a unique environment.\u00a0 Physicians are required to communicate not only with athletes, but also with coaches, athletic trainers (ATs), and other professions that surround the athlete.<\/p>\n

The presence of gender bias could lead to more stress, lower job satisfaction, and higher burnout rates of female Sports Medicine Physicians (SMPs).\u00a0 In order to achieve gender equity in the sports medicine world, we must first evaluate the environment to identify areas that need to be addressed.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How did the study go about this?<\/strong><\/p>\n

A survey was sent around the world and the responses from 1193 SMPs from 51 countries were analyzed.\u00a0 They were asked how often they felt disrespected or had their judgement questioned by key stakeholders within athletics as well as how often they were sexually harassed.\u00a0 The authors then looked at the responses to see if there were different answers between male and female sports medicine physicians.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What did the study find?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We found that female SMPs felt disrespected or had their judgment questioned more than male SMPs.\u00a0 This was the case for almost all of the categories studied including their interactions with male athletes, female athletes, male coaches, female coaches, male athletic trainers, female athletic trainers, administration, male physicians of all ages, and female physicians in practice longer than them.\u00a0 The only category where male and female SMPs did not differ in feeling disrespected was in their exchanges with female physicians in practice the same or less time as them. Sports medicine physicians in Asia perceived less disrespect or had their judgment questioned less compared to European sports medicine physicians.\u00a0 Additionally, female North American physicians perceived disrespect or had their judgment questioned more than their female European counterparts.<\/p>\n

Female SMPs reported higher rates of sexual harassment than male counterparts by the following groups: male athletes, male coaches, male physicians in practice both longer and shorter than them, male athletic trainers, and administration.\u00a0 In the survey, 29.9% of female SMPs reported being sexually harassed by male physicians in practice longer than them and 18.4% were sexually harassed by male athletes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Details of the responses of \u2018how often have you felt disrespected or had your judgment questioned by the following?\u2019 on both male and female sports medicine physicians.<\/p>\n

What are the key take-home points?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We hope this study creates more awareness about the disrespect, harassment, and inequity experienced by women in sports medicine. While all members of the sports environment (athletes, coaches, athletic trainers) should work together and treat each other with respect, the experiences reported by women in this study reveal a toxic work culture that is extremely pervasive and disturbing. We challenge the sports medicine community to examine current practices and offer solutions to make the workplace a safer environment for both men and women across the world.<\/p>\n
