  • Understanding health information, communication, and information seeking of patients and consumers

    Open AccessDaniel R LongoARTICLEHealth Expectations2005

    There is a critical need for an updated, more comprehensive, and integrated conceptual model to help health care providers, patients, and consumers, as well as researchers using this theoretical model, to better understand health information, communication, and information seeking of patients and consumers. My colleagues and I have developed such a model, based on an ongoing research agenda and empirical data provided by pilot studies in the area…

ISBN 0-335-21351-0 This book is one of the first to address the issue of communication of health risk in the context of a movement away from a paternalistic model of health-care in which doctors rarely involved patients in decision-making. In order for patients to become more empowered and truly involved in their own health-care and health-care decision-…

  • Rural Medical School Applicants

    Open AccessDaniel R Longo, Robert J Gorman et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Rural Health2005

    CONTEXT AND PURPOSE: Medical schools located in states with sizable rural areas are concerned about preparing physicians for practice in these areas; this is of particular concern for medical schools that are part of a state-owned university with a responsibility to educate physicians for rural areas. Because individuals from rural areas are most likely to return to practice medicine in rural areas at the conclusion of their training, it is impor…

  • A prospective investigation of the impact of smoking bans on tobacco cessation and relapse

    Daniel R Longo, Jane C Johnson et al.ARTICLETobacco Control2001

    Employees in workplaces with smoking bans have higher rates of smoking cessation than employees where smoking is permitted, but relapse is similar between these two groups of employees. The results of this investigation have international applicability for policy makers, clinicians, employers, and employees. Countries should review smoking policies in workplaces in light of their own smoking patterns and efforts to deal with environmental tobacco…

  • Implementing smoking bans in American hospitals

    Daniel R Longo, M M Feldman et al.ARTICLETobacco Control1998

    Smoking bans were successfully implemented in American hospitals, with many restricting smoking beyond the JCAHO standard. Other industries wishing to follow hospitals' lead would be most likely to succeed in the context of a social norm favouring a smoking ban and regulation by an outside agency

  • Patient Practice Variation

    Daniel R LongoARTICLEMedical Care1993

    This article presents a theoretic framework, "patient practice variation," currently missing from the investigations of medical care variation. Resource utilization, immediate, and long-term outcomes may be better explained by including utilities under control of the patient into small area variation studies. This especially may be important in the area of prenatal and maternal care and certain chronic diseases, such as diabetes. The quality of c…

  • Structural Determinants of Hospital Closure

    Daniel R Longo, Gary A ChaseARTICLEMedical Care1984

    In a retrospective case-control study, structural characteristics of hospitals that closed during the years 1976-1980 were contrasted with three comparison groups: hospitals that were acquired in a merger; hospitals that joined a multihospital system; and hospitals that remained autonomously opened, to investigate these characteristics as predictors of closure. Characteristics investigated included environmental, structural, and process variables…
