Abstract

This essay reviews research I conducted through the lens of Law’s Community Interaction Theory, and draws out its contextual relevance to widening participation in medicine. It discusses implications for practice, and suggests potential in Law’s idea for the role of guidance practitioner as both applied psychologist and sociologist.
