Abstract
This multi-site comparative study provides statistically significant evidence that simulation-based experiences with standardized patients with disability (SPWD) improved student attitudes towards people with disability (PWD). Analysis of open-ended questions found that students recommended these simulation experiences as a valuable way to learn about interacting with people with disability.
