The multilevel analysis showed that 3 determinants were associated with higher level of shared decision making: younger age of the patient (b = -1.8; 95% CI = -3.1 to -0.4), longer duration of the consultation (b = 5.5; 95% CI = 2.7 to 8.3), and higher level of education of the physical therapist (b = 9.1; 95% CI = 2.7 to 15.4).</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>The level of shared decision making in daily physical therapist practice for people with shoulder problems leaves room for improvement.
