We assessed the educational impact of a primetime network TV storyline that addressed cancer patient navigators. An online survey was administered after the episode aired. Exposed respondents saw the episode (n = 336); unexposed respondents did not (n = 211). Exposed respondents were more likely to report they would recommend a patient navigator (61% vs. 48%, p = 0.01). Clips of the episode were shown to raise awareness of patient navigators in a Congressional Committee meeting before the Patient Navigator Act was signed into law (2005). Entertainment education can have a positive impact on cancer knowledge and can contribute to policy-level decisions.
我们评估了一个在黄金时段电视网播出的、关于癌症患者导航员的故事情节所产生的教育影响。该剧集播出后进行了一项在线调查。接触过该剧集的受访者观看了这一集(n = 336);未接触过的受访者则没有观看(n = 211)。接触过该剧集的受访者更有可能表示他们会推荐患者导航员(61%对48%,p = 0.01)。在《患者导航员法案》签署成为法律(2005年)之前,该剧集的片段在国会委员会会议上播放,以提高对患者导航员的认识。娱乐教育可以对癌症知识产生积极影响,并有助于政策层面的决策。
