Abstract

Nurses address pain and suffering in their daily practice; yet, an underlying problem for nurses is the presence of implicit bias. This paper uses the Walker and Avant (2019) Concept Analysis guidelines to analyze the concept of implicit bias in nursing. The concept analysis reviewed 143 articles of which 21 articles met the inclusion criteria for understanding the impact of implicit bias in current nursing practice. Defining attributes, antecedents, consequences, and empirical referents are identified. Example cases are also offered. The concept analysis highlights the concept of implicit bias and the impact upon nursing care.
