Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Advice (opinion). Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20120321200947/http://www.sapients.net/article/howtogiveafriendadvice/ to http://www.sapients.net/article/howtogiveafriendadvice/

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Analysis of advice

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Maybe it would be good, now or at some later point, to add a section on the (scientific) analysis of (professionally given) advice. It could include info on/from this study which I recently featured in 2022 in science:

A study systematically assesses advice given by professional general practitioners, typically in the form of verbal-only consultation, for weight-loss to obese patients. They found it rarely included effective methods, was mostly generic, and was rarely tailored to patients' existing knowledge and behaviours.^[1]^[2]

What do you think about such a (brief) section if this isn't the only study of this type? Is there more research like this (especially for other areas than health/medicine)?
