People with visible skin diseases often experience stigmatisation. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate an intervention for medical students to counter the stigmatisation of people with skin diseases. A 3-h intervention was developed, including self-experience, education and a patient encounter. Effectiveness regarding outcomes was assessed at 3 time points: before and immediately after the intervention, and at 3-month follow-up. Data from 127 participants were analysed. Regarding all outcomes, significant effects were observed in the intervention group, for
“social distance”, “agreement with negative stereotypes”, “agreement with disease-related misconceptions” and “intended behaviour”. These results should encourage medical faculties to invest in such courses to prevent stigmatisation.

The quality of dermatology consultations is partly determined by how clinicians approach patient care. The term ‘Personal Models’ describes the explanatory frameworks of thoughts, feelings and experiences that drive behaviour. One study found that clinicians’ personal models, specifically their beliefs about autonomy and patient self-management, influenced the degree to which clinicians engage patients in shared decision-making during consultations. Further research is needed to further explore how clinicians’ personal models inform and affect the quality of patient care.
