The conversation is guided by branching scripted prompts designed to elicit the participant's values, goals, expectations, and understanding of the potential benefits and harms of testing. Responses are transcribed using verbal-to-text technology. Unlike standard decision aids or educational materials, this intervention emphasizes patient reflection and shared decision-making by prompting participants to consider what matters most to them before making a decision about the test.

The study involves adult patients attending a musculoskeletal specialty clinic.\n\nThe main questions it aims to answer are:\n\n1. Does having a structured conversation about the pros and cons of a test affect how much a person wants to have that test?\n2. Does that conversation help people feel more confident and less conflicted about their decision?\n\nResearchers will compare patients who have a values-based discussion with a researcher to those who receive brief written information about the test, to see if these approaches affect how people feel about having the test.\n\nParticipants will:\n\n* Read a brief scenario about a proposed diagnostic imaging test (like an X-ray, MRI, CT, or ultrasound).\n* Either take part in a short structured conversation or read brief information about the test.\n* Answer a short survey about their thoughts on the test.\n\nThis study does not involve actual medical testing or affect your clinical care.
