One Solution For Managing Risks During Cutbacks In Residency Training Programs, Patrick Knott, Kathleen Ruroede
One Solution For Managing Risks During Cutbacks In Residency Training Programs, Patrick Knott, Kathleen Ruroede
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Professors Knott and Ruroede examine the risks associated with downsizing and elimination of physician residency training programs.
Procedural Choices In Regulatory Science, Sheila Jasanoff
Procedural Choices In Regulatory Science, Sheila Jasanoff
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
This paper compares four approaches to using science in regulatory decision making - one very similar to the Science Court proposal. Professor Jasanoff argues generally that that proposal would be less useful than procedures more sensitive to the distinctive characteristics of regulatory science.
The Science Court: Reminiscence And Retrospective, Allan Mazur
The Science Court: Reminiscence And Retrospective, Allan Mazur
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
A self-described "agnostic" on the merits of the Science Court proposal describes how he independently arrived at a similar notion and played a role in efforts to secure a major test of the proposal. Professor Mazur also analyzes university-based experiments structured around that model and concludes that the controversial "judges" are probably unnecessary to achieve his original objectives.
Consensus Development At Nih: What Went Wrong, Itzhak Jacoby
Consensus Development At Nih: What Went Wrong, Itzhak Jacoby
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
A close observer identifies the Science Court concept as inspiring consensus development conferences at the National Institutes of Health and describes the extent to which they have followed the model. Professor Jacoby also argues that, if the model were more closely followed, conference objectives would be better realized.

Doctors At Risk: A Problem As Viewed By Decision Analysis, Leonard P. Caccamo, Kimbroe J. Carter, Barbara A. Erickson, William R. Johnson, Edward Kessler
Doctors At Risk: A Problem As Viewed By Decision Analysis, Leonard P. Caccamo, Kimbroe J. Carter, Barbara A. Erickson, William R. Johnson, Edward Kessler
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
The authors closely analyze a case in which a Peer Review Organization cited a physician for treatment with potential for significant adverse effect. They also critique the regulatory scheme under which peer review occurs and conclude that such regulation interferes with physicians' primary obligations, fails to encourage cost-effective behavior and may decrease the quality of medical care.
Patient Perceptions Of Drug Risks And Benefits, Michael S. Brown, Linda J. Wastila, Carol I. Baras, Louis Lasagna
Patient Perceptions Of Drug Risks And Benefits, Michael S. Brown, Linda J. Wastila, Carol I. Baras, Louis Lasagna
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
This is a report of a pilot study conducted to examine patients' perceptions of drug Risks and benefits. While all of the factors influencing such perceptions are important, the findings about the extent to which views are affected by patient understanding of and confidence in regulatory oversight should be of professional interest to an especially broad audience.
