| Abstract |
In addition to the motor and cognitive symptoms that people with Parkinson's disease (PD) typically experience, psychiatric symptoms such as anxiety are also commonly experienced by people with PD. The overall purpose of the current study was to explore driving and driving cessation for people with PD and their families. A descriptive phenomenological approach was employed using semi-structured interviews and 34 interviews were conducted overall (22 participants with PD and 12 family members). Experiences of anxiety and worry that had an impact on driving and driving cessation arose from the data, and this article specifically captured the lived experience of anxiety with driving and driving cessation for people with PD and their families. Findings reveal that the experience of anxiety while driving, as well as anticipatory anxiety and/or worry related to driving cessation, affect the driving experiences and wellbeing of people with PD. Implications of the study findings are outlined and aim to provide information about the needs to enable future clinical directions to be developed. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 February 2019.
All research outputs
#6,374,808
of 23,659,844 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Gerontologist
#145
of 453 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#106,779
of 368,626 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Gerontologist
#6
of 8 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,659,844 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 72nd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 453 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.2. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 67% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 368,626 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 70% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 8 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 2 of them.
