Projection of Care Partners' Preferences in the Proxy Assessments of Everyday Preferences for Persons With Cognitive Impairment.
Article in The American journal of geriatric psychiatry : official journal of the American Association for Geriatric Psychiatry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveBias in surrogate decision-making can occur when proxy decision-makers overestimate the degree to which their preferences are shared by others, resulting in a projection of their beliefs onto others. The purpose of this study is to assess projection of care partners' preferences onto surrogate assessments of everyday preferences for persons with cognitive impairment (CI) and to address clinical and demographic factors as predictors of projection.
methodsThe sample included 116 dyads of persons with CI (Clinical Dementia Rating Scale score ≥ 0.5) and their care partners. The Preferences for Everyday Living Inventory (PELI) was used to assess importance of preferences among persons with CI. Care partners completed two separate PELI assessments: one from the perspective of the persons with CI (i.e., acting as a surrogate decision-maker) and one from their own perspective. To assess for projection of care partners' preferences onto surrogate assessments of preferences for persons with CI, two-step regression with multivariable-adjusted general linear models was used.
resultsSignificant projection was noted within the PELI domains of autonomous choice, personal growth, and keeping a routine (p < 0.005). More significant cognitive impairment was associated with increased projection within the PELI domains of autonomous choice and personal growth (p < 0.05).
conclusionThe results of this study suggest that projection of care partners' own preferences may be a significant source of bias in proxy decision-making regarding everyday preferences for persons with CI, particularly for those with more significant CI.
