PY - 2019 DA - 2019/05/29 TI - An educational intervention for medical students to improve self-efficacy in firearm injury prevention counseling JO - Injury Epidemiology SP - 27 VL - 6 IS - 1 AB - Most physicians support counseling patients about firearm injury prevention (FIP), but infrequently do so due to lack of training and low confidence. Interventions to increase counseling frequency should focus on improving physician self-efficacy. Firearm injuries affect many clinical specialties; therefore, trainees would benefit from early FIP education. This study aims to determine if a 20-min educational intervention improves self-efficacy in FIP counseling in third-year medical students. Knowledge and beliefs were also assessed as secondary indicators of self-efficacy. SN - 2197-1714 UR - https://doi.org/10.1186/s40621-019-0201-3 DO - 10.1186/s40621-019-0201-3 ID - Kwong2019 ER -
