  • Will I Have to Be Reborn? Collective Sensemaking of Stigma among White-Collar Inmates

    Open AccessNavdeep K Arora, Navdeep Arora et al.ARTICLEWork Employment and Society2025References: 57

    We have a limited understanding of how individuals anticipate the experience of stigma, make sense of it as a group, and how such sensemaking trickles down to the individual level, especially for white-collar inmates who have experienced a drastic fall from grace. To address these issues, we draw on three waves of semi-structured interviews and focus group data with 70 inmates in a federal prison in the United States over a period of 16 months. O…

  • Varieties of Uncertainty in Health Care

    Open AccessPaul K J Han, William M P Klein et al.ARTICLEMedical Decision Making2011

    Uncertainty is a pervasive and important problem that has attracted increasing attention in health care, given the growing emphasis on evidence-based medicine, shared decision making, and patient-centered care. However, our understanding of this problem is limited, in part because of the absence of a unified, coherent concept of uncertainty. There are multiple meanings and varieties of uncertainty in health care that are not often distinguished o…

  • Measuring patient-centered communication in cancer care

    Open AccessLacey Mccormack, Lauren A McCormack et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2011

    Patient-centered communication (PCC) is a critical element of patient-centered care, which the Institute of Medicine (Committee on Quality of Health Care in America, 2001) promulgates as essential to improving healthcare delivery. Consequently, the US National Cancer Institute's Strategic Plan for Leading the Nation (2006) calls for assessing the delivery of PCC in cancer care. However, no comprehensive measure of PCC exists, and stakeholders con…

  • Trust and Sources of Health Information

    Bradford W Hesse, David E Nelson et al.ARTICLEA.M.A. Archives of Internal…2005

    BACKGROUND: The context in which patients consume health information has changed dramatically with diffusion of the Internet, advances in telemedicine, and changes in media health coverage. The objective of this study was to provide nationally representative estimates for health-related uses of the Internet, level of trust in health information sources, and preferences for cancer information sources. METHODS: Data from the Health Information Nati…

  • Examining the Relationship of Patients’ Attitudes and Beliefs With Their Self-Reported Level of Participation in Medical Decision-Making

    Navdeep K Arora, Neeraj K Arora et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2005References: 33

    OBJECTIVE: We applied constructs from the transtheoretical model (TTM) of behavior change to identify modifiable determinants of patient participation in medical decision-making. METHOD: We surveyed a convenience sample of 621 primary care patients at one Boston hospital (response rate 60.6%). With a random half of the sample, we examined the factor structure of a new Patient Attitudes and Beliefs Scale (PABS) that focused on issues about partici…

  • The Health Information National Trends Survey (HINTS)

    David Nelson, David E Nelson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health Communication2004

    Little is known about access, sources, and trust of cancer-related information, or factors that facilitate or hinder communication on a population-wide basis. Through a careful developmental process involving extensive input from many individuals and organizations, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) developed the Health Information National Trends Survey (HINTS) to help fill this gap. This nationally representative telephone survey of 6,369 pers…
