This comprehensive reference delves into the complex process of
medical decision making-both the nuts-and-bolts access and
insurance issues that guide choices and the cognitive and affective
factors that can make patients decide against their best interests.
Wide-ranging coverage offers a robust evidence base for
understanding decision making across the lifespan, among family
members, in the context of evolving healthcare systems, and in the
face of life-changing diagnosis. The section on applied decision
making reviews the effectiveness of decision-making tools in
healthcare, featuring real-world examples and guidelines for
tailored communications with patients. Throughout, contributors
spotlight the practical importance of the field and the pressing
need to strengthen health decision-making skills on both sides of
the clinician/client dyad. Among the Handbook's topics: From
laboratory to clinic and back: connecting neuroeconomic and
clinical mea sures of decision-making dysfunctions. Strategies to
promote the maintenance of behavior change: moving from theoretical
principles to practices. Shared decision making and the
patient-provider relationship. Overcoming the many pitfalls of
communicating risk. Evidence-based medicine and decision-making
policy. The internet, social media, and health decision making. The
Handbook of Health Decision Science will interest a wide span of
professionals, among them health and clinical psychologists,
behavioral researchers, health policymakers, and sociologists.
