Description

Chaoyan Dong and co-authors wrote a commentary on psychological safety in health professions education, published in 2024. The catalog lists a 2025 date, but the text itself gives 2024. The authors draw on work from a global community of practice. They define the key idea as the belief that a person will not be punished or shamed for speaking up, sharing ideas, raising concerns, or making mistakes.

The commentary applies a four-part model of safety to five teaching settings. The parts cover being included, learning, adding ideas, and asking hard questions. The settings range from classrooms and clinics to online teaching and mixed-team training. For each one, the authors name the main threats and offer plain steps that teachers can use to help learners speak up with less fear.
