尽管越来越多的人意识到在技术和科学领域的不确定性,医生之间的不确定性,除了在培训中的医生,没有得到很好的研究。现有的研究主要采用小样本和定性方法。本文报告了第一个严格制定的措施,管理的不确定性,以大样本的执业医生。相反,否认和趋势,以尽量减少不确定性报告在实地研究的学员,医生在这项研究中很容易承认的不确定性在一些领域。
Despite growing awareness of uncertainty in technical and scientific fields, uncertainty among physicians, except among physicians in training, is not well researched. Existing studies have primarily used small samples and qualitative methods. This article reports the first rigorously developed measures of uncertainty administered to a large sample of practicing physicians. In contrast to denial and the tendency to minimize uncertainty reported in field studies of trainees, physicians in this study readily acknowledged uncertainty in a number of areas.
