“…The authors of the current article believe that health care is now entrenched in the era of the shared decision-making model of practice, where patients are being asked or expected to participate in the cancer treatment decision-making process (Charles et al, 1999;Colella & DeLuca, 2004;Elwyn et al, 2012;Fenton, 2003;Kane, Halpern, Squiers, Treiman, & Mc-Cormack, 2014;Muller, 2012).
