Résumé / Abstract
The difficult doctor-patient relationship and «difficult patients» have been the subject of considerable anecdotal study.

Adult patients and their providers in an academic, municipal hospital clinic participated in the instrument development (n=92), reliability (n=224), and assessment of patient characteristics phases (n=113) of the study. The DDPRQ was shown to be a reliable, practical instrument. Factor analysis revealed 5 dimensions with face validity
