Description
Tamrat Nida and Abdisa Tufa Bedada published a research paper in 2026 on how medical residents in an Ethiopian teaching hospital experience learning from role models. Watching senior doctors is central to becoming a doctor, but its lived texture outside wealthy Western systems is little studied. Ten residents from five departments gave repeated interviews, kept reflective journals for three months, and were observed at work.
Four themes emerged. Knowledge passed through the body: touch, movement, and shared feeling, not just words. Certain moments acted as hinges that abruptly redirected a resident's becoming. Residents swung between admiration and resistance inside a steep hierarchy. Wider cultural and resource limits framed it all. The authors call for mentorship that sees these layers.
