Can behavioural science be used to understand factors that influence the prescription choice for Parkinson’s disease? A pan-European focus group study of clinicians’ prescribing practice
These findings suggest that prescribing decisions for Parkinson's disease are determined by a complex range of factors linked to the COM-B components capability, motivation and opportunity. These can be further understood by specific behavioural domains, as identified by the TDF, which should be targeted to help optimise subsequent prescribing decisions.
