Testicular cancer typically affects young and middle-aged men. An educational video about prostate and testicular cancer was created in American Sign Language, with English open captioning and voice overlay, so that it could be viewed by audiences of diverse ages and hearing characteristics. This study recruited young Deaf (n = 85) and hearing (n = 90) adult males to help evaluate the educational value of the testicular cancer portion of this video. Participants completed surveys about their general, testicular, and total cancer knowledge before and after viewing the video. Although hearing men had higher pre-test scores than Deaf men, both Deaf and hearing men demonstrated significant increases in General, Testicular, and Total Cancer Knowledge scores after viewing the intervention video. Overall, results demonstrate the value of the video to Deaf and hearing men.
睾丸癌通常影响年轻和中年男性。制作了一部关于前列腺癌和睾丸癌的教育视频,该视频采用美国手语,并配有英文字幕和语音叠加,以便不同年龄和听力特征的观众都能观看。本研究招募了85名年轻的失聪成年男性和90名听力正常的成年男性,以帮助评估该视频中睾丸癌部分的教育价值。参与者在观看视频前后完成了关于他们的一般癌症、睾丸癌和总体癌症知识的调查。虽然听力正常的男性在测试前的分数高于失聪男性,但失聪和听力正常的男性在观看干预视频后,其一般癌症、睾丸癌和总体癌症知识分数均有显著提高。总体而言,结果证明了该视频对失聪和听力正常男性的价值。
