DSP race was also significantly associated with subjective decision quality.
DSP race and education, as well as patient comorbid conditions and surgery type, were also significantly associated with deliberation. Models also adjusted for DSP age, patient stage, receipt of chemotherapy, receipt of radiation, and SEER site without significant associations with patient decision appraisal.
