Research output: Contribution to journal › Meeting abstract (Journal)

Abstract

At the intake of the PGD/HLA procedure in UZ-Brussels the couples are interviewed by an ethicist-psychologist as part of a research project. This qualitative research, using semi-structured, in-depth interviews fully transcribed and analysed, aims at getting more insight in the attitudes, values, arguments and motives which play a role in the decision process for opting or not opting for PGD/HLA. In this presentation we analyse the data of 28 intake-interviews, taken between april 2008 and december 2010.
