Σύνοψη	The PSCS is a patient-report instrument measuring satisfaction with complementary and alternative medicine services, including acupuncture, herbal medicine, massage, and other modalities. Developed by Margolis and colleagues in 1998, it captures dimensions of satisfaction specific to CAM practice—practitioner communication, efficacy expectations, cost concerns, and interpersonal warmth.	The I-CAM-Q is a structured questionnaire designed to systematically assess the use of complementary and alternative medicine practices and practitioners. Developed by Quandt and colleagues in 2009, it provides comprehensive data on CAM utilization patterns, frequency, purposes, and perceived helpfulness across diverse populations.
