How do US orthopaedic surgeons view placebo-controlled surgical trials? A pilot online survey study
Randomised placebo-controlled trials (RPCTs) are the gold standard for evaluating novel treatments. However, this design is rarely used in the context of orthopaedic interventions where participants are assigned to a real or placebo surgery. The present study examines attitudes towards RPCTs for orthopaedic surgery among 687 orthopaedic surgeons across the USA. When presented with a vignette describing an RPCT for orthopaedic surgery, 52.3% of pa…
The Importance of Patient Expectations
Objective: To examine how psychiatrists think about and modulate non-specific factors (e.g., hope, expectations) in clinical practice. Methods: U.S. psychiatrists were recruited for two studies assessing attitudes and behaviors related to non-specific factors. Study 1 entailed remote qualitative focus groups ( k = 7) with n = 26 participants (36.0% female). Study 2 was a quantitative survey with n = 346 respondents (34.0% female) designed to asse…
Do Bisexual Girls Report Higher Rates of Substance Use than Heterosexual Girls? A Failure to Replicate with Incarcerated and Detained Youth
Prior research suggests that sexual minority females, particularly bisexuals, report greater rates of substance use than heterosexuals. However, to our knowledge, no study has compared alcohol/drug use between bisexual and heterosexual incarcerated or detained female youth. The current study pools data from three prior treatment studies with incarcerated or detained adolescent girls that self-identify as bisexual or heterosexual ( N =86). Hierarc…
The Communication of Suicidal Intent by Completed Suicides
This article reviews the literature on the communication of suicidal intent by completed suicides. Research problems and methodological differences which limit knowledge about suicidal communications are discussed. Despite these difficulties, available data confirms that suicides frequently do communicate their intent. Furthermore, suicides identified as noncommunicators may, nevertheless, provide cues suggesting their intent. Although a few diff…
