Comparison of Facilitated and Self-Directed Practices on 3 Main Outcomes

OutcomeFacilitated Practices, Mean (SD) (n=16)Self-Directed Practices, Mean (SD) (n=15)ANOVA P Values
ANOVA = analysis of variance; NDP = National Demonstration Project; PCMH = patient-centered medical home.
Notes: Patient-rated PCMH and practice adaptive reserve are scale scores described in the text. ANOVA analyses were weighted by the number of respondents as a proxy for practice size.
a The proportion of 39 measurable model components in place.
b Scores represent the average summed responses for 23 items (shown in Table 2), with a range of 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). Items were reverse-scored when appropriate so that higher numbers reflect more positive ratings.
c Scores represent the average summed responses for 23 items (shown in Table 3). Items were reverse-scored when appropriate and rescaled to reflect a range from 0 to 1, where higher scores reflect more adaptive reserve.
