Understanding attitudes toward clinical research.

Full Abstract

General attitudes toward clinical research can have substantial effects on the research process. Recent studies, including the study by Apolone and Mosconi in this issue, suggest that certain attitudes toward research and evaluations of the risks and benefits of therapies may differ according to various cultural, rhetorical, and health contexts. Researchers must work to further understand societal attitudes toward research and to improve the attractiveness of clinical research for the general population.
