Modeling the Decision to Undergo Colorectal Cancer Screening
BACKGROUND: Little is known about how patients decide whether or not to undergo colorectal cancer screening. Although low screening rates evidence the outcome of these decisions, the processes patients use to balance benefits, risks, and costs with their own values and preferences are unclear. To increase screening rates, and ultimately save lives, it is important for providers to be aware of how patients make screening decisions. OBJECTIVES: The…
Do We Really Need All That Equipment
The lifetime risk of developing colorectal cancer is 2.5 to 5% in the general population. Colorectal screening can prevent mortality, and there are a number of screening methods, ranging from noninvasive to highly invasive. Although recommendations have been widely disseminated in the media and scientific journals, screening usage is low. In this project, the authors examine the factors that influence individuals' decisions regarding colorectal s…
Capturing the Insights of Family Caregivers
The usefulness of qualitative methodologies to augment and enrich quantitative studies is often overlooked. The authors’goals are to describe the qualitative process employed to generate survey items and to compare the results to those of studies that used different methodologies for item generation. The study identified barriers to and benefits of memory assessments. The survey item generation methodology, which involved 24 key informant intervi…
Modeling a Dynamic Decision Process
One contributor to caregiving burden is the stress of making decisions. Family caregivers need support to consider and implement decisions. Support is likely to result in informed decisions and decreased guilt. The purpose of the study described in this article was to understand the decision processes of family caregivers of people with dementia using a multiple case study approach that would result in a model of their decision processes, with em…
