Effect of Audiovisual Cancer Programs on Patients and Families.

Cassileth, Barrie R.; And Others

Journal of Medical Education, v57 n1 p54-59 Jan 1982

Four audiovisual programs about cancer and cancer treatment were evaluated. Cancer patients, their families, and friends were asked to complete questionnaires before and after watching a program to determine the effects of the program on their knowledge of cancer, anxiety levels, and perceived ability to communicate with the staff.
