This paper is the results of a survey which was used to evaulate the differences between doctors and patients on the interpretation of commonly used medical terms. This article was written by Charles Murray Boyle and was published in the British Medical Journal in 1970. Boyle was a final year medical student at the University of Glasgow when he did the survey. The results were taken from 234 of a possible 257 questionaries. The sites was access through google scholar. It contains references, but does not contain links or contacts.

I really like this article, but because it was written in 1970 it is very outdated.
