Survey on Knowledge, Attitude, and Behavior Regarding Narrative Medicine Based on 2 145 Medical Personnel / 中国医学伦理学

ABSTRACT

【Objective:】 To understand the knowledge, attitude and behavior of Chinese medical personnel on narrative medicine. 【Methods:】 2 145 domestic medical staff were investigated through online questionnaire by convenient sampling. 【Results:】 The scoring rates of knowledge, attitude and behavior of narrative medicine among medical personnel were 49.62%, 47.18%, and 41.43% respectively. 【Conclusion:】 From the cognitive perspective, although most of the participants were familiar with the big framework of narrative medicine, they knew little about the specific methods and tools. As for attitude, medical staff can still further learn the attitude and identity of narrative medicine related theories. But the overall attitude was positive, which laid a foundation for further promoting narrative medicine. From the behavioral perspective, medical personnel’s reading and writing frequency of disease narrative stories was relatively low. In the future, relevant skills training and habit cultivation should be strengthened.
