Workplace social capital, workplace loneliness, and compassion among physicians
OBJECTIVE: Although compassion is a cornerstone of medicine and a key outcome of medical education, a compassion crisis in contemporary healthcare has been described. While previous studies have primarily focused on individual-level determinants of compassion, environmental factors have been overlooked.

We adopted pragmatism paradigm and analyzed to identify decisi…

This study examined the association between empathy and ambiguity tolerance in the clinical context among medical trainees. METHODS: We conducted a multicenter cross-sectional study in 12 institutions: 2 universities for medical students and 10 hospitals for residents. We assess…
