Study Summary

Rationale: Shared decision-making models between clinicians and patients are critical to improving healthcare delivery and adherence to medication. One type of model, decision framing, is rarely studied in medicine. Decision framing is the way that a choice is worded. In a clinical context, patient choices can be worded positively, or "gain-framed", to explain the benefits of a therapy or negatively, or "loss-framed", to explain the risks of not taking a therapy. Previous literature suggests that decision-framing can significantly influence patients' decision-making regarding their healthcare. However, a critical gap exists in understanding how decision framing affects psoriasis patients' preferences for therapies. Objective: Determine whether loss-framed messages lead to greater therapy acceptance as compared to gain-framed messages among adults with psoriasis. Study population: 90 adults with psoriasis will be enrolled from USC ambulatory clinics and the general public. Intervention: Subjects will be exposed to gain-framed or loss-framed messages regarding psoriasis therapies. Specifically, gain-framed messages will explain the expected benefits of taking the psoriasis therapy and loss-framed messages will explain the potential risks of not taking the psoriasis therapy. Study Methodology: Cross-sectional single-intervention survey.

Primary Outcome

Difference in survey responses based on exposure to gain-frame or loss-frame question. After exposure to the positively or negatively framed question, subjects will be asked how likely they would agree to receive a hypothetical injectable medication. The subjects will answer with a Likert scale ranging from 0 to 10, with 0 indicating they will definitely not want the medication and 10 indicating they will definitely want the medication. Each enrolled subject will complete the survey only once.
