In statistics, several tools are used to interpret the data. Measures of central tendency represent the characteristics of the data, such as mean, median, and mode. Additionally, measures of variance like standard deviation and range are used to find the spread of data from the mean. Relative standing measures the distance between data locations. Commonly used measures of relative standings are percentile, z score, and quartiles.
Percentiles are a type of fractile that partition data into...

Data are individual items of information obtained from a population or sample. Data may be classified as qualitative (categorical), quantitative continuous, or quantitative discrete. Because it is not practical to measure the entire population in a study, researchers use samples to represent the population. A random sample is a representative group from the population chosen by using a method that gives each individual in the population an equal chance of being included in the sample. Random...

Decision Making

Decision-making is a fundamental cognitive process that involves evaluating alternatives and selecting among them. This process can range from simple choices, such as deciding what to wear, to complex decisions, like choosing a major in college or a career path. The complexity of the decision often dictates the approach we use, which can be broadly categorized into two types: automatic and controlled decision-making.
Automatic decision-making is fast, intuitive, and relies on gut feelings...

Decision Making: P-value Method

The process of hypothesis testing based on the P-value method includes calculating the P- value using the sample data and interpreting it.
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is proposed. The claim is based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to the claim  is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses:  a null hypothesis would be a neutral statement while the alternative hypothesis can...

The process of hypothesis testing based on the traditional method includes calculating the critical value, testing the value of the test statistic using the sample data, and interpreting these values.
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is decided based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to this claim is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses, out of which a null hypothesis would be a...

The history of therapeutic communication can be traced back to Florence Nightingale, who emphasized the importance of developing trusting relationships with patients. She taught that the presence of nurses with patients results in therapeutic healing.
Therapeutic communication is not the same as social interaction. Social interaction has no goal or purpose and consists of casual information sharing, whereas therapeutic communication has a plan or purpose for the conversation. Therapeutic...

Area of Science:

  • Dental practice
  • Healthcare decision-making

Background:

  • Shared decision-making (SDM) is increasingly recognized in healthcare.
  • Its implementation in dentistry requires further investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the implementation of SDM in dentistry.
  • To assess the roles of informed consent and patient decision-making aids (PDAs) in dental SDM.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature review was conducted.
  • Databases searched included PubMed and MEDLINE.
  • The review focused on the application of SDM in dental practice.

Main Results:

  • Published studies on SDM in dentistry are limited.
  • SDM in dentistry is affected by numerous factors.
  • Informed consent and PDAs are integral to the SDM process, enhancing patient information delivery.

Conclusions:

  • SDM is practiced in dentistry but influenced by various factors.
  • Informed consent is a key component of dental SDM.
  • Further development of PDAs is needed for better patient integration in dental decision-making.
