Spirituality Research Study
Berman Institute faculty member, Daniel Finkelstein
recently met with collaborators and consultants to finalize preparations for a spirituality research study. The purpose of the study is to understand whether patients and their physicians value a conversation about spirituality during a medical visit. In addition, researchers will explore whether there is a change in physician practice with respect to spirituality conversations from before to after the study. Subject recruitment for the one-year study will begin soon.
