Chapter 13 Summary of pre-genomic testing questionnaire

In this section, a brief summary and comparison of questionnaires from both cohorts, VHIO and HOPE, is pursued. Therefore, the main topics and comparisons were extracted from previous chapters and included here to visualize the results and plots in easier manner.

13.1 Demographics

13.4 Exploratory Factor Analysis

Here, two EFA results are displayed. First, including only the expectations items; and then, considering the final set of 14 items.

Results for VHIO cohort (n=10 items).

Results for HOPE cohort (n=10 items).

Results for VHIO cohort (n=14 items).

Results for HOPE cohort (n=14 items).

After all the different EFA analysis and comparisons, the best results were observed with the HOPE cohort and 14 items. Although these results were not completed emulated in the VHIO cohort, they seems to be the best approach.
