Colleen Barclay's research focuses on cancer screening decisions, particularly for colorectal and prostate cancer, examining how patients and primary-care providers weigh the benefits and harms of screening tests. Work includes developing and testing decision aids that help older adults make informed choices about screening, and studying the psychological effects of unexpected or overdiagnosed conditions found through screening. This research is relevant to students interested in healthcare decision-making, shared decision-making tools, and the broader issue of medical overuse.
