Determining factors affecting the user's intention to disclose privacy in online health communities: a dual-calculus model by Zhuo Sun, Zhuo Sun, Guoquan Zang, Zongshui Wang, Shuang Ge, Wei Liu, Kaiyang Wang

“…BackgroundAs a new type of medical service application for doctor-patient interaction, online health communities (OHCs) have alleviated the imbalance between the supply and demand of medical resources in different regions and the problems of “difficult and expensive access to medical care”, but also raised the concern of patients about the risk of disclosure of their health privacy information.MethodsIn this study, a dual-calculus model was developed to explore users' motivation and decision-making mechanism in disclosing privacy information in OHCs by combining risk calculus and privacy calculus theories.ResultsIn OHCs, users' trust in physicians and applications is a prerequisite for their willingness to disclose health information. …”
