Potential benefits of patient involvement in modeling. The potential benefits of patient involvement are represented in distinct bubbles: benefits to the model, modeler, modeling process, and patient. “Benefits to the patient” appears with a question mark because it was not directly identified by study participants. Potential benefits to the model are detailed in three bubbles (excludes irrelevant phenomena; includes relevant phenomena; consistent with patients’ factual knowledge). Potential benefits to the modeler are detailed in four bubbles (knowledge; level of interest in the model; decision-making; communication). Potential benefits to the modeling process are detailed in six bubbles (more adequate for model conceptualization; more adequate for decision-making; transparent; democratic; objective; legitimate)
