The following changes were made in the article after its publication:
1. The Methods section in Abstract has been amended by removing the second sentence, “Analyses involved descriptive statistics to characterize participants’ responses per domain, exploratory factor analysis, and multivariate regression analyses.”
The revised text for Methods section is as follows:
We conducted a survey of AMEE members to explore three domains related to evidence-informed health professions education: (1) attitudes; (2) practices; and (3) supports and barriers. Analyses involved descriptive statistics to characterize participants’ responses per domain. Chi-Square statistics were carried out to examine differences among the demographic variables on a subset of items in each of the three survey sections.
2. An Acknowledgment section has been newly added in the article as follows:
“The authors wish to acknowledge the funding from the Association for Medical Education of Europe to support this research and Ms. Sarah Zahabi for her assistance in the early stages of this research.”
