Patterns of privilege: A total cohort analysis of admission and academic outcomes for Māori, Pacific and non-Māori non-Pacific health professional students

Abstract: BackgroundTertiary institutions are struggling to ensure equitable academic outcomes for indigenous and ethnic minority students in health professional study. This demonstrates disadvantaging of ethnic minority student groups (whereby Indigenous and ethnic minority students consistently achieve academic outcomes at a lower level when compared to non-ethnic minority students) whilst privileging non-ethnic minority students and has important implications for health workforce and health equity priorities.

“…Descriptive summary data are presented in Table 1 for all predictor and academic outcome variables. Differences in unadjusted predictor and academic outcome variables between ethnic groupings have previously been discussed elsewhere (Wikaire et al 2016). Tables 2, 3 present the analysis results for each of the three ethnic groupings of interest (Māori, Pacific and nMnP) as well as the full cohort which compares the three ethnic groupings in the same model.…”

“…Predictor variables were chosen based on available SSO data and a predictors of success model that foregrounds significant concepts that may impact on indigenous (Māori) and ethnic minority (Pacific) student success (Wikaire et al 2016). Concepts within the model include: demographic; socioeconomic status; academic preparation; transitioning; early academic results; and, the tertiary environment.…”

“…Conversely, shyness and lacking self-confidence or motivation have been described as hindering factors (Ali & Narayan, 2016; Benseman et al, 2006; Chu et al, 2013). A recurring theme is adequate preparation for academic study, including good academic achievement and acquiring effective study skills at secondary school (Kokaua, Sopoaga, Zaharic, & van der Meer, 2014; Madjar, McKinley, Deynzer, & van der Merwe, 2010; Wikaire et al, 2016).…”

“…Similar to other Indigenous populations, Māori have a lower life expectancy than non-Māori and this is evident in higher rates of mortality, earlier onset of disease, greater severity and progression of disease, and higher levels of comorbidity and impairment (Rolleston et al, 2020; Wikaire et al, 2016; Williams & Mohammed, 2013). Indigenous peoples tend to experience less access to medical care and receive poorer quality of care compared with non-Indigenous people (Williams & Mohammed, 2013).…”

As such, the focus on patterns of white privilege has become a context for reviewing ongoing health inequities along with the impacts of colonisation (Borrell et al, 2009; Wikaire et al, 2016).…”
