Physician information acquisition and believability: a field experiment on source and type of information

Article Abstract:

A field experiment to ascertain the impact of various sources of information on physicians' perceptions found that the physicians were more likely to believe information coming from personal sources, such as colleagues, than nonpersonal sources, such as advertisements. The test market was a large metropolitan area and included 228 physicians. Positive information from a personal source was more believable than negative information.
