Survey response rates for physicians are falling generally, and surveys of tend to have lower than those the general population. To maximize response, respondents often given a choice modes in which respond. The aim this article is describe mode patterns identify factors related physicians’ decisions complete online rather by mail. data from fifth annual wave Medicine Australia: Balancing Employment Life longitudinal survey physicians, there was 43.5% rate (10,746/24,711) 33.7% completed...
This article describes a trial of psychoeducational intervention designed to modify negative attitudes toward flexible sigmoidoscopy screening and thereby increase attendance. The materials addressed the multiple barriers shown be associated with participation in earlier studies. Adults ages 55-64 (N = 2,966), "harder-to-reach" group were randomized either receive an brochure or standard invitation group. Attitudes expectations assessed by questionnaire, attendance at clinic was recorded....
Genomic restriction maps for the small colony (SC) strains (PG1, KH3J, Gladysdale, and V5) of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. (the agent contagious bovine pleuropneumonia) strain PG50 (classified as serogroup 7), with respective sizes 1,280, 1,260, 1,230, 1,040 kbp, were compared map (1,200 kbp) a large (Y goat) M. mycoides. The number order all mapped sites fully conserved in SC genomes, approximate positions loci. A these Y genome some, but fewer, appeared to be conserved. shared conservation...
Traditionally, in many countries general practices have been privately-owned independent small businesses. However, the last three decades has seen rise of large corporate medical groups defined as private companies which are able to non-GP shareholders and with branches across locations. The greater prominence profit motives may implications for costs, access care quality care. We estimate that 45% GPs Australia worked a practice was company, within this group over one third (19.9% total)...
Despite their low cost, the use of email invitations to distribute surveys medical practitioners have been associated with lower response rates. This research compares difference in rates from using approach plus online completion rather than a mailed invitation letter choice or paper completion. A parallel randomised controlled trial was conducted during 11th annual wave nationally representative Medicine Australia: Balancing Employment and Life (MABEL) longitudinal survey doctors. The...

A factor described as pathological dissociation emerged that predicted by participants being male. There also were differences in between groups sexually and physically Replication this establishment base rates for various children are recommended so might be used to more effectively eliminate false positives increase true screening ultimate treatment dissociative KEYWORDS: child...
Abstract Background: Despite the low cost of using email to distribute surveys medical practitioners, invitations have been associated with lower response rates, potentially increasing bias and reducing external validity. We examine if there is a difference in rates from rather than mailed invitation letter nationally representative longitudinal survey qualified physicians. Methods: use parallel randomised controlled trial during 11 th annual wave Medicine Australia: Balancing Employment...
