About The Study: This analysis of assessments of 2,708 emergency medicine residents found evidence of sex-specific ethnoracial disparities in ratings on the Milestones assessments. These disparities increased over time across multiple Milestones assessments and were most severe for female residents of ethnoracial groups that are underrepresented in medicine. 

Authors: Elle Lett, Ph.D., M.A., M.Biostat., of the University of Washington School of Public Health in Seattle, is the corresponding author.
