This study compared physical therapists from the United States and from Sweden regarding the interpretations of justice they judged as the most appropriate for distribution of health care resources. A two-part questionnaire was used. Results showed that Swedish therapists were more consistent in their responses than United States therapists, and that they favored a "needs-based" approach over a "utilitarian," "contract," or "skeletal" approach. The impact of the responses upon the physical therapists' involvement in the formulation of this type of health policy is discussed.
本研究比较了来自美国和瑞典的物理治疗师对他们认为最适合用于分配医疗保健资源的公平性解释。使用了一份分为两部分的问卷。结果显示，瑞典治疗师的回答比美国治疗师更一致，并且他们更倾向于“基于需求”的方法，而非“功利主义”、“契约”或“框架”方法。讨论了这些回答对物理治疗师参与制定此类卫生政策的影响。
