Accuracy of Physician Self-assessment Compared With Observed Measures of Competence: A Systematic Review
CONTEXT: Core physician activities of lifelong learning, continuing medical education credit, relicensure, specialty recertification, and clinical competence are linked to the abilities of physicians to assess their own learning needs and choose educational activities that meet these needs. OBJECTIVE: To determine how accurately physicians self-assess compared with external observations of their competence. DATA SOURCES: The electronic databases …
Personalized Targeted Mailing Increases Mammography Among Long-Term Noncompliant Medicare Beneficiaries: A Randomized Trial
OBJECTIVES: The study purpose was to increase mammography screening among older women by identifying female Medicare beneficiaries without a recent mammogram and assesses the cost-effectiveness of a personalized targeted mailing encouraging them to have a mammogram. METHODS: A randomized paired controlled trial included 1229 pairs of women matched on zip code, race, and urban or rural county. Postintervention mammography claims were measured from…
Person-Environment Fit Theory: Conceptual Foundations, Empirical and Directions Future Research
Theories of stress have long recognized the importance of both the person and environment in understanding the nature and consequences of stress. Person constructs relevant to stress research include Type-A behavior (Friedman and Rosenman, 1959), locus of control (Rotter, 1966), hardiness (Kobasa, 1979), and coping styles (Menaghan, 1983). The environment has been construed as stressful life events (Rabkin and Struening, 1976), daily hassles (DeL…
Person‐Environment Fit Theory: Some History, Recent Developments, and Future Directions
In honor of John R. P. French, Jr., recipient of the 1992 Kurt Lewin Award, this article traces French's contribution to the development of person‐environment (PE)fit theory. The text examines recent extensions of PE fit theory. Extensions include the introduction of response surfaces to examine the homogeneity of effects of PE fit on indicators of mental health across all levels of P or of E and research examining the antecedents of PE fit. The …
Developing Criteria for Ordering Common Ancillary Services
This article describes the process utilized to develop criteria for appropriately ordering five ancillary services frequently performed in hospitals: 1) arterial blood gases, 2) electrocardiograms (ECGs), 3) serum electrolytes, 4) chest x-rays, and 5) complete blood counts (CBCs). The development of each set of criteria involved an initial consultant, a panel of six additional regional expert consultants, and three national reviewers. Each criter…

The Effects of Burn Severity and Institutional Differences on the Costs of Care
Burn care treatment is among the costliest yet least studied forms of care. This paper presents estimates of the magnitude and components of burn care costs. It analyzes the extent to which burn care cost is determined by severity of burns or by characteristics of the institution in which the patient is treated, based on patient-specific data from eight hospitals representing different levels of technical sophistication in the delivery of burn ca…
