Project title- ThinkCancer!: A pragmatic randomised controlled phase III trial of a novel behavioural intervention for primary care teams to promote earlier cancer diagnosis with embedded process and economic evaluation.
We interviewed GPs to explore their underlying beliefs in identifying, investigating, and referring cancer signs & symptoms.
We identified three main external influences that GPs described as part of their work processes.
