This chapter focuses on the different facets of treatment decision making that have been empirically derived and are part of the peer-reviewed literature. These facets are approaches of treatment decision making (i.e. exploration and uptake of shared decision making, the current gold standard of treatment decision making); optimal treatment decision making (i.e. barriers and facilitators to engaging in optimal treatment decision making); support for treatment decision making (i.e. decision tools, nomograms, and seeking guidance on the Internet); the psychosocial state of patients following treatment decisions; and considerations related to studying treatment decision making (i.e. racial/ethnic disparities, cultural differences in decision making). Areas in which research is lacking or nonexistent (i.e. ensuring the patient understands the goals of treatment before making a treatment decision) are also highlighted as directions for future research.
