  • Efficacy of Three Numerical Presentation Formats on Lay People’s Comprehension and Risk Perception of Fact Boxes—A Randomized Controlled Pilot Study

    Open AccessPascal Aubertin, Thomas Frese et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2023

    (1) Background: Fact boxes present the benefits and harms of medical interventions in the form of tables. Some studies suggest that people with a lower level of education could profit more from graphic presentations. The objective of the study was to compare three different formats in fact boxes with regard to verbatim and gist knowledge in general and according to the educational background. (2) Methods: In May 2020, recruitment started for this…

  • A new graphical format to communicate treatment effects to patients—A web‐based randomized controlled trial

    Open AccessJürgen Kasper, Adrian van de Roemer et al.ARTICLEHealth Expectations2017

    Objective Patients making treatment decisions require understandable evidence‐based information. However, evidence on graphical presentation of benefits and side‐effects of medical treatments is not conclusive. The study evaluated a new space‐saving format, CLARIFIG (clarifying risk figures), aiming to facilitate accuracy of comprehension. Methods CLARIFIG displays groups of patients with and without treatment benefits as coloured sectors of a pr…

  • Turning signals into meaning –‘Shared decision making’ meets communication theory

    Open AccessJürgen Kasper, France Légaré et al.ARTICLEHealth Expectations2012

    Shared decision making (SDM) is being increasingly challenged for promoting an innovative role model while adhering to an archaic approach to patient‐clinician communication, both in clinical practice and the research field. Too often, SDM has been studied at the individual level, which ignores the interpersonal system between patients and physicians. We aimed to encourage debate by reflecting on the essentials of SDM in terms of epistemology. We…
