    The Availability Heuristic01:08

    The Availability Heuristic

    A heuristic is a general problem-solving framework (Tversky & Kahneman, 1974). You can think of these as mental shortcuts that are used to solve problems.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Public Health

    Context:

    • High non-compliance rates (21%) with post-vasectomy semen examination at CHUL (1985-1987).
    • Socio-demographic profiles of compliant and non-compliant patients were similar.

    Purpose:

    • Investigate the reasons behind the high rate of non-compliance with post-vasectomy semen examination procedures.
    • Identify factors influencing patient adherence to post-vasectomy fertility checks.

    Summary:

    • Telephone survey of 43 non-compliant patients revealed negligence (70%) and procedural constraints (49%) as primary reasons for non-adherence.
    • Lack of information was rarely cited as a barrier.
    • No distinct patient profile predicts compliance, suggesting systemic rather than individual patient factors are key.

    Impact:
