dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study was to explore perspectives of advanced cancer patients on the use of a video decision support aid developed to enhance Goals of Care (GOC) discussions and to examine how the video influenced participants' perceptions and knowledge about GOC. A qualitative approach was applied to collect data from participants before and after watching the video. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 14 participants from an Outpatient Radiation Oncology Bone Metastases Clinic. Extended Elaboration Likelihood Model was the conceptual framework used to guide data analyses. Participants found the video scenarios made the GOC framework more personally relevant. They were able to relate their experiences to the video. Participants found the timing and professional clinic environment appropriate for watching the video. Several participants expressed their intention to initiate discussions with their health care providers and to formalize their GOC plans.en_US
