Objective: This mixed-methods study explored whether physician associates/assistants (PAs) who are Black wo wome men (f (for or bre revi vity ty, ca call lled ed Bl Blac ack wo wome men PA PAs thr hrou ough ghou out this article) experience gendered racial microaggressions and whether these experiences correlated with psychologic distress. The phrase Black women encompasses those who identify with the sociocultural roles, behaviors, and expressions of being a Black woman. Methods: We conducted an online survey of Black women PAs using the Gendered Racial Microaggressions Scale during a 2-month period in 2019. Results: Black women PAs experienced gendered racial mi micr croa oagg ggre ress ssio ions ns in cl clin inic ical al set etti ting ngs. s. Gen ende dere red ra raci cial al mic icro roaggressions were correlated with stress, being silenced and marginalized, and assumptions of beauty and sexual objectification. No correlations were found between stress and the angry Black woman and strong Black woman variables. Conclusions: This study revealed that Black women have interlocking forms of oppression related to their race and gender, which are associated with psychologic distress. Awareness of these occurrences can reduce the unknowing perpetuation of gendered racial microaggressions and create cultural awareness practices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
