Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

Randomized Case Vignette Study

If participants agree to take part in this study, participants will complete about 16 questionnaires that will have questions about participants quality of life, anxiety, health, and case scenarios that are not real or based on your actual health situation. It should take a bit more than an hour to complete all the questionnaires. If participants find that any of these questions are difficult to read, understand, or otherwise complete; or if they cause distress, participants may ask the study team for clarification, skip the question, or even stop the study at any time.

Additionally, information will be collected from participants medical record about participants health and treatment, as well as participants demographic information (age, race, sex, and so on). Investigators may also ask participants for additional demographic information not found in your medical record.
