“…In an interesting study on veterans, Lillie et al (2020) examined the association of NCC with lung cancer screening completion and was controlled with the individual-level sociodemographic (age, race, gender, smoking status, and level of education). Results suggested that NCC groups did not differ by sociodemographic factors, low and high NCC groups had statistically similar levels of education, age, and race/ethnicity.…”

The purpose of this article is to examine the influence of pandemic, perceived risk, and cognitive dissonance on the need for cognitive closure. A consumer today wants an aversion towards the ambiguity that is created due to this pandemic. The data is collected using Amazon’s Mechanical Turk panel. All of the filled questionnaires are analyzed using stepwise regression. The findings suggest that perceived risk, pandemic, cognitive dissonance influence the need for cognitive closure and perceived risk is the major predictor of cognitive closure. These results enrich our understandings with regards to the importance of designing the marketing strategies in a way that will lead to the reduction in the consumer's perceived risk and cognitive dissonance created due to the pandemic.

“…Although initially the term was related to the individual educational level, it is has now been acknowledged as an inconsistent indicator of skill level [50] and, as such, we believe it should be captured individually. Cognitive closure, on the other hand, characterizes the extent to which a person, faced with a decision, prefers any answer in lieu of continued uncertainty [51]. Cognitive closure and anxiety have been related with more rapid and lower quality of decision-making and as such different type of information should be recommended to those patients.…”

Multidimensional Group Recommendations in the Health Domain

Providing useful resources to patients is essential in achieving the vision of participatory medicine. However, the problem of identifying pertinent content for a group of patients is even more difficult than identifying information for just one. Nevertheless, studies suggest that the group dynamics-based principles of behavior change have a positive effect on the patients’ welfare. Along these lines, in this paper, we present a multidimensional recommendation model in the health domain using collaborative filtering. We propose a novel semantic similarity function between users, going beyond patient medical problems, considering additional dimensions such as the education level, the health literacy, and the psycho-emotional status of the patients. Exploiting those dimensions, we are interested in providing recommendations that are both high relevant and fair to groups of patients. Consequently, we introduce the notion of fairness and we present a new aggregation method, accumulating preference scores. We experimentally show that our approach can perform better recommendations to small group of patients for useful information documents.

“…To achieve the goal of reducing lung cancer mortality, patients must continue to adhere to annual LCS and interim surveillance over many years. Some research has focused on describing and improving the initiation of screening (9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15), but there is limited research into adherence to follow-up testing (16). It remains unclear how patients make decisions about their continued engagement with screening and surveillance, the factors that influence these decisions, or the sources of information patients use.…”

Lung cancer screening (LCS) is a process involving multiple low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) scans over multiple years. While adherence to recommended follow-up is critical in reducing lung cancer mortality, little is known about factors influencing adherence following the initial LDCT scan. The purpose of this study was to examine patients’ and providers’ depictions of continued screening and their understandings of patients’ decisions to return for follow-up. Qualitative methodology involves interviews with patients about their understanding of the screening process and perceptions of lung cancer risk, including motivations to adhere to follow-up screening and surveillance. Analysis of interview transcripts followed the general procedures of grounded theory methodology. Patient adherence to LCS was influenced by their understanding of the process of screening, and their expectations for the next steps. Perceptions of lung cancer risk and associated motivation were not static and changed throughout the screening process. Recognizing that patients’ motivations may be dynamic over the course of screening and surveillance will assist providers in helping patients make decisions regarding continued engagement with LCS.
