Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the speaker discusses their involvement in a DEI task force and their efforts to assess diversity, equity, and inclusion in sports medicine research publications. They conducted a systematic review of studies published in AJSM, OJSM, and Sports Health over a four-year period to determine the representation and analysis of sex, race, and ethnicity. The findings revealed that while sex was well-reported and analyzed, race and ethnicity were poorly reported and analyzed. The majority of studies focused on male athletes, with only a small percentage specifically studying female athletes. The speaker also emphasizes the importance of female authorship in addressing gender disparities and increasing diversity in sports medicine research. Overall, there is a need for improved reporting and analysis of diversity factors in research publications.
