Answers were also analyzed according to clinicians' age.
No significant associations were found between decisional role preferences and clinicians' age, gender, specialisation, institution (academic/non-academic), or number of EC patients treated per year.
The first section collected attributional data on clinicians: age, gender, hospital tenure, prior experience in the NHS, specialization, and managerial role.
There was no significant association between minimally desired benefit from VBT and clinicians' age, gender, institution (academic/non-academic), years since specialisation or number of EC patients treated per year.
The separate resource area could provide multiple video vignettes of the same basic skills demonstrated by different types of clinicians (age, race, gender, profession) as well as additional tools to facilitate communication and behavior change.
Five clinicians (age 54±5 years, 40% males), each with more than 20 years of experience, working in the same medium-sized public hospital, were the final responders in the study and completed the questionnaires.
Twenty-two (73%) of the clinicians were aged over 50 and 14 (47%) over 55.
Analyses revealed no impact of gender or clinician age on clinician advice rates.
Clinician age was negatively and weakly correlated with short-acting beta agonist use for acute asthma attack (p = 0.003, rs = 0.241).
In univariate analysis, we examined the self-reported role as medical geneticist, genomics researcher, or nongeneticist clinician, age, years in practice, country of most senior training, and comfort in discussing genomic results.
