This randomized, crossover study examined advanced cancer patients’ perceptions of physician compassion when delivering a less optimistic versus more optimistic message. Patients with advanced cancer viewed two videos, each depicting actors portraying a physician and a patient discussing cancer treatment options. In one video, the physician delivers a less optimistic message and in the other, the physician delivers a more optimistic message. Participants rated their perceptions of physician compassion after viewing each video. They perceived the physician with the more optimistic message as more compassionate than the physician with the less optimistic message. The chapter describes the basics of the study, briefly reviews other relevant studies and information, gives a summary and discusses implications, and concludes with a relevant clinical case.
