What do people appreciate in physicians' communication? An international study with focus groups using videotaped medical consultations
BACKGROUND: The literature shows that the quality of communication is usually determined from a professional perspective. Patients or lay people are seldom involved in the development of quality indicators or communication. OBJECTIVE: To give voice to the lay people perspective on what constitutes 'good communication' by evoking their reactions to variations in physician communication. DESIGN: Lay people from four different countries watched the …
How do national cultures influence lay people’s preferences toward doctors’ style of communication? A comparison of 35 focus groups from an European cross national research
Lay panels valued doctors' communication style in a similar manner in the countries selected. This highlights the existence of a common background, which in the process of internationalization of heath care, might foster the implementation of cross-national teaching programmes and clinical guidelines
A standardized approach to qualitative content analysis of focus group discussions from different countries
Breast cancer genetic counselling referrals
Looking for Trouble
BACKGROUND: Not knowing patient concerns can lead to misunderstandings, incomplete diagnoses, patient dissatisfaction, and nonadherence. Although many studies show relations between physician communication and patients' expression of cues or concerns, most of these studies are cross-sectional, thus limiting the interpretation of these relationships. Sequence analysis can show the immediate effects of physician communication behaviors. OBJECTIVE: …
Daily negative interactions and mood among patients and partners dealing with multiple sclerosis (MS)
Afghan refugees and their general practitioners in The Netherlands
In-depth interviews with Afghan refugees living in The Netherlands about their experience of healthcare, have led to a series of narratives. This article focuses on the relationship between the refugee-patients and their general practitioners (GPs) from the participants' point of view. It was possible to distinguish four different types of narrative, by analysing the individual interviews into critical episodes. Building trust was identified as t…
Has patients’ involvement in the decision‐making process changed over time
Objective To get insight into the changes over time of patients’ involvement in the decision‐making process, and into the factors contributing to patients’ involvement and general practitioners’ (GPs) communication related to the Medical Treatment Act (MTA) issues: information about treatment, other available treatments and side‐effects; informed decision making; asking consent for treatment. Background Societal developments have changed the doct…
Receiving and providing support in couples dealing with multiple sclerosis
This study examined the effects of daily support exchanges in couples facing multiple sclerosis (MS). Two issues were examined: the imbalance between received and provided support, and the extent to which reciprocal exchanges of received and provided support are associated with end‐of‐day well‐being (positive and negative mood and self‐esteem). Guided by equity theory, we expected that one‐sided support provision or receipt would be harmful for w…
Cue-responding in a Simulated Bad News Situation
The stress-coping paradigm of Folkman and Lazarus (1984) was applied to investigate if the communicative reactions of the physician in a bad news transaction are related to the stressfulness of the situation. A standardized video bad news consultation was presented to 88 medical students. To examine their communicative reactions we selected 10 patient cues with different levels of expressed emotion to which the participants responded from the phy…
Gender Differences in Fatigue
BACKGROUND: Fatigue is a common problem, which is found more frequently among women than men. To date, neither the etiology of fatigue nor the factors that explain the gender difference in its incidence are still fully understood. METHODS: In a sample of men (n = 4,681) and women (n = 4,698) (age range, 15-64 years) in the Dutch National Survey of Morbidity and Interventions in General Practice, the gender differences in the underlying biological…
Gender and Communication Style in General Practice
OBJECTIVES: Differences were investigated between general practitioners providing women's health care (4 women) and general practitioners providing regular health care (8 women and 8 men). Expectations were formulated on the basis of the principles of women's health care and literature about gender differences. METHODS: Data were used from 405 videotaped consultations of female patients (over 15 years). Roter's Interaction Analysis System (RIAS) …
General practitioners' attributions of fatigue
Distinguishing between chronic and nonchronic fatigue, the role of gender and age
In this study the authors try to clarify the ambiguities in previous studies on demographic and social factors and fatigue. We have divided people with fatigue complaints and associated symptoms into those who have chronic and non-chronic complaints, and into men and women. The research is based on diaries kept by Dutch citizens over a 21-day period, and uses univariate and discriminant analyses. The results show the utility of stratification for…
Adaptive Tasks, Coping and Quality of Life of Chronically Ill Patients
This article is a report of a larger study on the relationship between adaptive tasks, coping and quality of life, taking Parkinson's disease and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) as examples. The concept of adaptive tasks or disease-related stressors testing the adaptive capacities of chronically ill patients ( N=134) was explored by applying the method of concept mapping. Results show that patients both with Parkinson's disease and with CFS genera…
Patient preference for genders of health professionals
Gender Differences in Practice Style
The differences between female and male general practitioners (GPs) were studied regarding three different factors: 1) Do female GPs see more female patients than their male colleagues in the same practice?; 2) Are female GPs confronted with different types of health problems from their male colleagues?; and 3) Do female GPs provide different services to their patients? Data from the Dutch National Study on Morbidity and Interventions in General …
Instrumental and Affective Aspects of Physician Behavior
In a semi-replication study, 103 videotaped real-life general practice consultations of patients with hypertension were observed with Roter's interaction Analysis System (RIAS). RIAS consists of a detailed category system meant to measure each verbal utterance of physician and patient (distinguished in task-related behavior and socio-emotional behavior) and a set of global affect-ratings. In this article, only general practitioner (GP) behavior i…
