Confidentiality and Consent in Adolescent Substance Abuse: An Update

Melissa Weddle, Patricia K. Kokotailo·2005·AMA Journal of Ethics

Abstract

Introduction Privacy is essential to adolescents who seek health care. When adolescents perceive that health care services are not confidential, they report that they are less likely to seek care, particularly for reproductive health matters or substance abuse.1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 Clearly, delay or failure to receive care for these concerns increases the risk for complications.9

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
