  • Abstract
    The shortage of medical resources is a basic problem the world faces. The development of information technology and the Internet has spawned Online Internet Community (OHC) and provides a new way for people to obtain health care information. However, research on the relationship between Doctor and Patient behavior still has deficiencies. This article studies OHC participants´ usage behavior and interaction relationships between them. By defining the concept and scope of the research object, we propose hypotheses based on the theoretical analysis and use data from Haodf for empirical analysis. The empirical results confirm the positive correlation between most behaviors. We also research the quantitative relationship between the doctors and patients behavior and their interaction.
