本研究探讨了患者愿意了解和参与医疗护理的程度。共有 256 名癌症患者完成了信息风格问卷和贝克绝望量表。患者的行为和信念融入了知情和积极参与的当代标准。发现了显着的年龄趋势:患者越年轻,他们越符合患者行为的知情参与者标准;患者年龄越大,他们越有可能更喜欢年长的、非参与性的患者角色。想要参与治疗决策的患者比其他人更有希望。每个年龄段的大多数患者都表现出很高的希望,愿意就自己的疾病进行公开交流,并渴望获得最大数量的信息。
The present study explored the degree to which patients prefer to become informed about and to participate in their medical care. A total of 256 cancer patients completed an Information Styles Questionnaire and the Beck Hopelessness Scale. Patients'' behavior and beliefs incorporated the contemporary standard of informed and active involvement. Significant age trends were found: the younger the patients, the more closely they conformed to the well-informed participant standard of patient behavior; the older the patients, the more likely they were to prefer the older, nonparticipatory patient role. Patients who wanted to be involved in treatment decisions were significantly more hopeful than others. Most patients in each age group displayed high levels of hope, preferences for open communication about their illness and a desire for maximum amounts of information.
