Abstract

The primary goals of this research are to assess and model the process of risk communication among healthcare workers towards the threat of bioterrorist agents and to identify factors that contribute to responsive clinicians, thereby providing a strategy for designing more effective education programs among healthcare providers who are the population with the most likely opportunities to identify a bioterrorist event.
