Abstract
Clinical reasoning is a cornerstone of physical therapist education, yet current frameworks often fail to capture its complexity and holistic nature. Traditional approaches primarily emphasize cognitive aspects, overlooking the interconnected and multifaceted components of reasoning. This EduGraphic serves as a valuable tool for both didactic and clinical educators, providing a comprehensive visual representation that makes the depth and breadth of clinical reasoning explicit to learners. It highlights the dynamic interplay between cognitive, sensory, and interpersonal elements, emphasizing the essential role of multisensory communication between the therapist and patient.
