BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the fastest growing cause of disability worldwide. Current treatments for OA are severely limited and a large proportion of people with OA live in constant, debilitating pain. There is therefore an urgent need for n...

Maximising response from GPs to questionnaire surveys: do length or incentives make a difference? (2015)
Journal Article
Roddy. (2015). Maximising response from GPs to questionnaire surveys: do length or incentives make a difference?. BMC medical research methodology, 3 -?. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2288-15-3

BACKGROUND: General Practitioners (GPs) respond poorly to postal surveys. Consequently there is potential for reduced data quality and bias in the findings. In general population surveys, response to postal questionnaires may be improved by reducing...
