However, there may be differences in participation, treatment preferences, and quality of life that are influenced by socioeconomic factors and ethnicity. This study will compare two distinct socioeconomic groups to determine differences in CAM use.\n\nParticipants in this study will complete a questionnaire regarding demographics, socioeconomic status, disease specifics, and facilitators and barriers to CAM use. Participation in an introductory seminar and in various CAM programs will be monitored. Participants will also complete a quality of life scale that will provide insight into the way different populations perceive and use CAM and will identify potential obstacles to integrating CAM into other cancer treatment programs.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Cancer diagnosis\n* Able to read and understand English'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00087932', 'briefTitle': 'Socioeconomic Influences on Complementary and Alternative Medicine Use in Cancer Treatment', 'organization': {'class': 'NIH', 'fullName': 'National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH)'}, 'officialTitle': 'Socioeconomic Diversity of CAM Integration in Oncology', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'R21AT000880', 'link': 'https://reporter.nih.gov/quickSearch/R21AT000880', 'type': 'NIH'}}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '48374', 'city': 'Novi', 'state': 'Michigan', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'Assarian Cancer Center', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 42.48059, 'lon': -83.47549}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'June L.
