With the growing focus on prevention in medicine, studies of how to describe risk have become increasing important. Recently,
some researchers have argued against giving patients “comparative risk information,” such as data about whether their baseline
risk of developing a particular disease is above or below average. The concern is that giving patients this information will
interfere with their consideration of more relevant data, such as the specific chance of getting the disease (the “personal
risk”), the risk reduction the treatment provides, and any possible side effects. I explore this view and the theories of
rationality that ground it, and I argue instead that comparative risk information can play a positive role in decision-making.
The criticism of disclosing this sort of information to patients, I conclude, rests on a mistakenly narrow account of the
goals of prevention and the nature of rational choice in medicine.

SUMMARY The time has come to enlarge our understanding of what an ageing older person truly is. What is called for is an approach to ageing and its multiple processes that moves beyond an empirical research model, which is limited to a positivistic focus on the bio-medical and social conditions of ageing. The spiritual dimension of the individual as well as the physical and social need to be acknowledged and valued in any definition of human existence. A segmental approach to the ageing process can only result on a reductionistic, one-dimensional caricature of the older person. There is an imperative need for the inclusion of the spiritual dimension in the study of ageing and its meaning. By issuing a call for a new wholistic paradigm that moves beyond the bio-medical model, and understanding the personhood is affirmed which includes a person's capacity to find meaning in life, indeed, even in ageing, suffering and dying. 相似文献

A growing body of empirical evidence has consistently demonstrated that much publically and privately funded research is reported in a way that makes it difficult for the findings to be included in evidence syntheses or used by researchers, clinicians, policy makers, and the public. Poorly reported studies thus represent a significant waste of scarce resources. Reporting guidelines are one strategy that has been increasingly used as a method to improve the completeness or usability of primary and secondary research across a broad range of disciplines including psychology. We present a synopsis of two studies investigating the impact of the Transparent Reporting of Evaluation with Nonrandomised Designs statement and factors that affect authors' and journal editors' use of it and other reporting guidelines. We also make recommendations for future guideline development or revisions based on our experiences, provide details of resources for psychologists, and make suggestions for future research and recommendations for improving the transparency of reporting of psychological research. 相似文献
