TABLE 6.

Statistically significant differences in response patterns for CADICEE items among relevant respondent subgroups

Subgroups Items with different response patterns* (difference**; P ***)
Clinical setting (primary care vs specialty care vs patient advisors)
  • ‘Did you need your care to be adjusted to your personal context (family, work, values, etc)?’ (patient advisors > primary care ≈ specialty care; P = .016)

  • ‘Did you need your expertise to be recognized and taken into account by professional?’ (patient advisors > primary care > specialty care; P < .001)

  • ‘Did you receive important information about your health or care’ (specialty care < primary care ≈ patient advisors; P = .033)

  • ‘Did you use your expertise in what was said or done’ (patient advisors > primary care > specialty care; P = .035)

Health‐care professional consulted (doctor vs other)
  • ‘Did you feel that this professional recognized your expertise and took it into account?’ (doctor < other; P = .045)

Age (18‐44 vs 45‐64 vs 65+)
  • ‘Did you feel that this professional had confidence in / trusted you?’ (46‐64 > 65+ > 18‐44; P = .037)

  • ‘Did you receive important information about your health or care?’ (65+ > 45‐64 ≈ 18‐44; P = .017)

Gender (female vs male)
  • ‘Did you need to feel empathy from this professional?’ (female > male; P = .021)

  • ‘Did you need your expertise to be recognized and taken into account by professional?’ (female > male; P = .040)

  • ‘Did you feel that this professional recognized your expertise and took it into account?’ (female > male; P = .036)

Education level (elementary vs high school vs college/vocational vs university)
  • ‘Did you want this professional to help you become more autonomous / independent?’ (elementary > high school ≈ college/vocational > university; P = .037)

Presence of chronic illness (yes vs no)
  • ‘Were you open to this professional's point of view (advice, etc)?’ (yes > no; P = .022)

*

Median tests for independent medians performed on 18 out of the 24 CADICEE items. Six items with an overall median of 4 (maximum category) were excluded because all values among subgroups could only be below or equal to it.

**

>: subgroup median superior to (…); <: subgroup median inferior to (…); ≈: subgroup median equivalent to (…).
