Schernhammer ES et al. – In this, to authors' knowledge, the first study to evaluate predictors of CAM preference in cancer treatment in a national probability sample, they found more formal education, female gender, and older age to be the strongest predictors of a person favoring CAM therapy in cancer treatment. This data also suggest that people who are satisfied with conventional care were less inclined to value CAM, whereas a positive personal experience with cancer cures improved positive perception of CAM.
