Preferences for degree of involvement in health care of 47 low-income, inner city, outpatient diabetic patients were measured by the Health Opinion Survey (HOS). These scores were compared with those of three normative groups of college students. Significant differences were found between the samples on each HOS subscale and the total HOS (all P values less than 0.001). Implications of these differences for health care providers are discussed.
通过健康意见调查（HOS）对47名低收入、市中心门诊糖尿病患者在医疗保健参与程度方面的偏好进行了测量。这些得分与三组大学生的规范样本得分进行了比较。在HOS的每个子量表和HOS总分上，样本之间均存在显著差异（所有P值均小于0.001）。文中讨论了这些差异对医疗保健提供者的意义。
