Addressing Tobacco in Managed Care
Objectives. This study assessed the tobacco cessation knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of dentists participating in a large managed care dental plan. Methods.

Comparing Predictors of Willingness to Treat HIV+ Patients for New York City Male and Female General Practice Dentists 50 Years of Age or Younger
Findings are encouraging for further work in developing predictive models for clinician subpopulations, with an eye toward developing intervention strategies that reflect key predictive factors for each group
Predicting dentists' perceived occupational risk for HIV infection
This study posed two questions: what is the level of perceived occupational risk among American general practice dentists (GPDs)? What factors influence perception of occupational risk for HIV infection among GPDs? In data obtained from a national mail survey of 1351 GPDs (response rate, 88%) 31% of American GPDs expressed disagreement with the statement that HIV+ individuals can be safely treated in their office settings. Of the 16 variables ent…
Professional life cycle changes and their effect on knowledge level of dental practitioners
Knowledge Acquisition Processes
We examined structural determinants of general practice dentists' knowledge of the most recent American Heart Association recommendations for the prevention of bacterial endocarditis. Using data from a 1986 national telephone survey of 578 respondents (response rate = 81%), we developed and analyzed a structural model, in which we investigated the contributions to knowledge by age, professional practice settings, colleague networks, and formal ed…
Acquisition of Knowledge About an Innovation in Patient Management
This study focused on the impact of dentists' attitudes and orientations on acquisition of knowledge about the prevention of bacterial endocarditis. Excperts' recommenda tions for the prevention of the disease are periodically revissed: each succeeding revision therefore represents an innovation. Analysis of data collectedfrom a telephone survey revealed that orientations seemingly compatible with the innovation (preventive, innovative) were not …
