An attitude scale was devised to discriminate between the extremes of doctor-centred, disease-oriented as opposed to patient-centred, problem-oriented (the DP scale). Four groups of subjects (214 in all) were tested with a Likert-type questionnaire based on this scale. Significant differences in attitude between the groups were found. Educational implications are discussed.
