Attachment A -- Student Survey



Evaluating the Knowledge and Educational Needs of Students of Health Professions on Patient-Centered Outcomes Research

Student Survey

Welcome.  

This survey is assessing students’ needs and preferences for integrating Patient-Centered Outcomes Research (PCOR) into the health professions’ curricula, learning environment, and other training opportunities.

Your perspective on this topic is valuable to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. If you would like the opportunity to provide further input (for example, through participation in a mini-forum or webinar) to help create a Roadmap for integrating PCOR into health care education, please specify your willingness below.

I would like to be contacted for possible future participation in a webinar or mini-forum related to PCOR:

  • Yes

  • No



Completion of the survey will take approximately 10 minutes and is voluntary. The confidentiality of your responses is protected by Section 944(c) of the Public Health Service Act.  42 U.S.C. 299c-3(c).

Please read the following definition about Patient-Centered Outcomes Research:  

Patient Centered Outcomes Research (PCOR) is research that assesses the benefits and harms of preventive, diagnostic, therapeutic, palliative or health delivery system interventions.  This research helps clinicians, patients and other caregivers make decisions about health care choices by highlighting comparisons and outcomes that matter to people, such as survival, function, symptoms, and health related quality of life.
