Abstract:
|
Garnering cooperation for surveys from physicians presents some interesting challenges for survey research professionals. A common approach for surveying physicians is the use of mail surveys and incentives. Battelle conducted two such studies -- one study was of psychiatrists who treat schizophrenic patients and the other was a study of primary care physicians, dermatologists, urologists and Ob/Gyns who had the potential to treat patients with the genital human papillomavirus (HPV). Both studies were conducted using modified versions of Donald Dillman’s “Tailored Design Approach.” Additionally, in the psychiatrist survey a $15 money order was included along with the initial package of survey materials as incentive for completing the survey. Clinicians in the HPV survey received a $50 bill included with the initial package of survey materials. The poster will present summary descriptive statistics comparing the two survey’s samples and response rates. A brief summary of the protocol utilized in each survey will also be presented. |
