Brief Summary
Prevention and early detection of medical problems can greatly reduce health care costs, yet time and again, people avoid or ignore services that could help detect medical problems early enough to prevent or reduce the severity of potential problems. The investigators seek to understand whether the elicitation of symptom admission by patients can predict people's perceived risk of the medical condition and voluntary pursuit of medical information.
