Professionalism is the first of six core competencies required in the curriculum of residency programs. Significant research has been done exploring the domains of professionalism in general and within the context of anesthesiology and anesthesiology training. Although little research has been done to identify breaches in professionalism most common today, research has shown there is a correlation between unprofessional behavior among physicians and patient dissatisfaction, lawsuits, and negative patient outcomes. The purpose of this study is to identify the most commonly perceived domains of unprofessional behavior observed in anesthesiology residency training programs. Additionally, we wish to see if professional lapses may stem from generational differences between teachers and trainees in their perception of professional behavior.

To assess the nature of ideological intuitions citizens use when making informed guesses about other people's political issue positions. In other words, what do people conclude about each other's wider system of political beliefs upon learning that a conversation partner supports (or opposes) a certain policy position or regulation (e.g. support for renewable energy investments, opposition to the death penalty). Intuitions about wider sets of political beliefs may be relevant to political decision making (e.g. voting, candidate appraisal) and in everyday social interactions (deciding which friend-circles to enter, whom to associate with, which clubs, associations to join, ect). The goal of this study is to gain an overview of the prevalence and relative strength of ideological intuitions for a set of 16 different political attitudes and identity markers.
