67 名医生在审查两份门诊图表的相同副本后所选择的实验室测试数量与潜在收益和潜在损失情况下的风险偏好相关。那些选择以 50/50 的比例进行赌博的医生,要么损失 10 年预期寿命,要么不损失 5 年预期寿命,而选择的测试数量是那些选择损失预期寿命的医生的两倍(p < 0.025)。风险偏好可能有助于了解为什么一些医生比其他医生安排更多的实验室检查。
The risk preferences in situations of potential gain, and of potential loss, expressed by 67 physicians were correlated with the numbers of laboratory tests they selected after review of identical copies of two outpatient charts. Physicians who chose a 50/50 gamble of losing ten or no years of life expectancy over an equivalent certain loss of five years selected twice as many tests as those who chose the loss (p < 0.025). Risk preferences may provide some insight into why some physicians order more laboratory tests than do others.
