讲座摘要（Abstract）:
For health conditions ranging from the common cold to cancer, patients often face a decision between conservative and aggressive options. For example, a person diagnosed with thyroid nodules might weigh watchful waiting against a minimally invasive thyroidectomy. In today’s patient-centred healthcare, patients play a growing role in treatment decision-making (Elwyn 2021; Epstein 2000). A key patient-related factor, socio-economic status (SES), is consistently linked to health outcomes (Adler et al. 1994), yet the behavioral mechanisms driving these outcomes are less understood. Our research explores how SES influences patient preference for aggressive vs. conservative treatments.
