A Systems Model of Clinical Preventive Care: An Analysis of Factors Influencing Patient and Physician

exist to show researchers in health behavior and health education how they might
use focus groups for these purposes. This paper provides an example of group
discussions ...

medicines, 67% get medicines for themselves and others, and 19% (more often
older and l...
