- 1. Patient factor Hypothesis 1: Patients choice of treatment is
highly related with their past experience. Past experience as
information is one of the major criteria when considering
alternatives. A high degree of loyalty in seeing doctor. Unless the
doctorpatient relationship breaks down, people seek the same
doctor. Qualitative measurement will be used to evaluate whether
the past treatment experience is positive or not.
- Slide 5
- 1. Patient factor Hypothesis 2: Patients choice of treatment is
affected by social influence. finding out the relationship between
cultural background of patients and their choice of medication.
CUHK is a good place for research: both TCM and WM are available in
campus focus on cultural behaviour of patients, their family and
friends.
- Slide 6
- 2. Disease patient suffer Hypothesis 3: Patients decisions on
whether to consult TCM practitioners depends on the types of
illness suffered. Self-reported illnesses, namely cough, cold
and/or influenza, digestive disorders, fall-related injuries and
skin disease were significantly associated with choice of doctor
type. Lau, J.T., & Yu, A. (2000)

- Hypothesis 1: Patients choice of treatment is highly related
with their past experience. Important factors of a positive past
experience: Quality of care (Report of the National Patient Choice
Survey May/June 2006) communication skills and sensitivity of
doctors patient involvement the provision of information and
explanations (Little P, Everitt H,Williamson I, et al. Preferences
of patients for patient centred approach to consultation in primary

- Slide 13
- Conclusion of hypothesis 1 Positive past experience does not
increase frequency of consultation of medicine For Western
Medicine: Most patients tend to sometimes consult WM For Chinese
Medicine: Most patients seldom consult CM Past experience
(performance of doctor) does not affect frequency of
consultation.

- Misconception Regarding TCM Lack of direct causal relationship
Treatments may not be able to be explained by current stage of
science Complicated components of herbal medicine are difficult to
measure Not Scientific
- Slide 39
- Misconception Regarding TCM WM is micro-based while TCM is
macro-based Acupuncture can be explained by current scientific
model Only a few components in western drugs, which is easily
controllable, while herbal medicine are too complicated to be
explained by simple causal relationship. Not Scientific
