Patterns of disrespectful physician behavior at an academic medical center: implications for training, prevention, and remediation.

Hopkins J, Hedlin H, Weinacker A, Desai M. Acad Med. 2018;93:1679-1685.

Male physicians and those in procedural specialties were more likely to be involved in an event involving unprofessional behavior.
