“…Therefore it is prudent that the patient's beliefs about OCF and their experiences during and after treatment are explored. 26,27 Previous studies have demonstrated that patient satisfaction is an important and measurable outcome of treatment. 28,29 .…”

“…In this model, those that report a general decline of trust in experts would argue that this 'leap of trust' is no longer premised in an automatic respect of their knowledge base. Lee-Treweek (2002) also argues it is the phenomenological processes of patients that establishes the trust. Her study of an alternative health setting allows us to see the establishment of trust between patient and provider of health care outside of the historical status of established medical knowledge.…”

“…The relative importance of each dimension to a particular patient will vary and is often related to the patient's individual circumstances. Both Möllering (2001) and Lee-Treweek (2002) suggest that trust is established through investment by the patient in the process. Möllering (2001) argues that while trust can involve elements of rational decision making, it also involves a leap of faith between an individual's interpretation of the issues and the expectation of a preferred outcome.…”

Embodied expertise: women’s perceptions of the contraception consultation

This research, based on qualitative interviews and non-participant observation, emerges from a larger study investigating what factors influence the 'contraceptive careers' of British women in their 30s. The women informants recognized that contraceptive products often impacted on their health, but viewed them as distinct from 'medical matters'. Rather than doctors being seen as having expertise, it was women health professionals, be they nurses, midwives, health visitors or doctors, who were perceived as the ones who 'know' about contraception, through an assumption that they are contraception users. This embodied knowledge is valued by the women above their formal medical training. I will also show how general practice surgeries and family planning clinics were viewed as gendered spaces, which altered the expectations and experiences of the women during contraceptive consultations. This study found that as 'real' expertise over contraception stems from embodied rather than textual knowledge, the women's choices were grounded by a gendered sense of trust.

“…According to Lee-Treweek (2002) trust arises in situations where individuals lack the ability to assess risks and probabilities but choose to believe in something anyway. Especially the trust in expert systems seems important in farming where scientific research and expert knowledge are institutionalized parts of agricultural production (Gillespie & Buttel, 1989).…”

Attitudes, experience and knowledge among farmers to recycling of sludge

Today's wastewater systems have been built to improve the hygiene level within households and the quality of water for other users, but have on the other hand created another environmental problem in the production of sludge. In many Western societies more than 50% of sludge produced is being distributed on agricultural land, and resistance to this practice among farmers is growing. In a survey answered by 1050 farmers, attitudes, experiences and knowledge towards use of sludge were investigated. Reasons for use were soil conditioner properties and compensation schemes. Reasons for non-use were fear of toxic compounds and infectious remnants, restrictions on use of land and unfamiliarity with use. There was more knowledge among users than among non-users. Compensation for sludge among farmers implied a perception of sludge as a waste. If farmers must accept sludge, then reliable and complete information from trusted sources is required: economic arguments about agronomic benefits are not sufficient and confidence with other stakeholders and a feeling of justice in solving environmental problems are central aspects.
