SOLUTIONS VERIFIED LATEST UPDATE
illusion of choice
- swaying her choice
informed choice
- letting her make a choice
informed consent
- getting permission to do something
- NOT including her values or beliefs
informed compliance
- steering her decision
- telling her if she chooses any other option it would be a bad thing
- ex: tell woman what tests WILL be performed throughout her pregnancy
shared decision making
- taking into account her values & beliefs
- opposite of informed consent
sensitivity
- TRUE POS. rate -- probability of testing pos. given that you HAVE disease
- SNOUT = SN (test w/ high sensitivity) --> helps to --> OUT (rule OUT disease)
- high sensitivity rate with NEG result then disease ruled out
, - % of sick people correctly identified as sick
*this test really wants to be Pos. so if Pt test neg. = Pt probably NOT sick
specificity
- TRUE NEG. rate -- probability of testing neg. given that you do NOT have disease
NEG that are correct
- SPIN = SP (test w/ high specificity) --> helps to --> IN (rule IN disease)
- high specificity rate with POS. result then disease ruled in
- % of healthy people correctly identified as NOT sick
*this test really wants to be Neg. so if Pt test pos. = Pt probably sick
sensitivity as a person
- this person is extremely sensitive & picks up on everything you say or don't say --> if
you speak in the wrong way to them they get upset = any little signal that Pt has disease
will then have a POS. test result
specificity as a person
- this person is very specific & very fussy --> nothing is good enough for them -->it will
take a lot to get a POS. result = WEAK signal of disease then Pt will have a NEG. test
result
metal detector w/ LOW SPECIFICITY & HIGH SENSITIVITY
= many FP --> keys WOULD set off alarm cxing increased warning that a problem
exists
*low specificity = increased FP = more weapons checks
*high sensitivity = decreased FN = more weapons found
