Sammanfattning
Six case histories concerning female urinary incontinence were mailed to 191 randomly selected general practitioners in Norway, of whom 139 replied. Great variations in suggested investigations and treatment were found between individual doctors. Four explanatory variables were examined: doctors' sex, years since graduation, urban/rural location, and specialization.
