本研究是以認知、態度、與行為意向三個層面去探討中醫門診病人對傳統醫學的態度,除了分析受訪者對各個問題的反應外,進一步以因素分析法將三個層面的題目歸類分組,並且探討各個共同因素在選擇不同醫院型式時的差異。於民國78年8月至10月之間,對全省有開辦勞保的26家醫院診所進行系統性抽樣與結構式問卷。共得有效樣本362位。結果顯示:(1)認知比例最高者是「中藥因藥性和治療的需要,常製成不同的劑型」,其次是「針灸是中醫常用的治療方法之一」。認知比例最低者是「拔火罐是屬於中醫的治療方法之一」。(2)對中醫的態度方面,同意比例最高的是「西藥的副作用大,而中藥的藥性溫和,不會有副作用」,其次是「西醫的治療時間短,中醫的治療過程較久」。在不同意方面,比例最高的是「西醫診斷較準確,中醫較不準確」。(3)行為意向方面最傾向中醫的有「肌肉拉傷,關節脫臼」與「肌肉關節酸痛,關節炎」。(4)求診教學醫院中醫部的病患較之求診一般中醫診所的病患:對中藥的認知較高,對中西醫藥理與療效的態度較偏向中醫,對神經精神症狀的行為意向較偏向中醫。
