T2  - Emotion in the Clinical Encounter
AB  - Women  and  men  differ  in  how  they  feel,  express,  and  manage  emotions,1  and  these  gender  differences  also  affect  clinical  practice.  Female  physicians  expressing  concern,  being  considerate,  and  talking  about  feelings  with  patients  do  not  get  the  same  credit  for  their  patient-centered  communication  as  do  male  physicians.2  Female  patients  expressing  fear  are  less  likely  to  obtain  the  necessary  treatment  for  anxiety  disorder  because  they  are  perceived  as  “hysterical.”3  A  priori  assumptions,  often  unconscious,  such  as  implicit  stereotypes  affect  how  we  treat  women  and  men  and  such  stereotypes  also  affect  social  interactions  in  the  medical  domain.  While  missing  an  emotional  cue  in  an  interaction  at  work  (e.g.,  not  noticing  that  my  colleague  is  sad)  might  not  hamper  work  performance  much,  missing  emotional  cues  in  patients  might  have  detrimental  effects  (e.g.,  missing  cues  of  sadness  or  despair  resulting  in  a  patient’s  suicide).
