- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to learn more about the content of and benefits of making video testimonials in adolescents with cancer.
- Detailed Description
The current research aims to:
A. enlist teens with cancer to produce video narratives about their experiences with their illness B. explicitly characterize and investigate the videos' content and C. determine what aspects of the production were helpful to the teen making them and predicted to be helpful to those watching them.

Group Intervention Description Video Narrative with surveys PedsQL Participants will be asked to create a 10-15 minute video narrative on their experiences after being diagnosed with cancer. Participants will also be asked to complete surveys including pediatric quality of life (PedsQL), Ten Item Personality Inventory (TIPI), Delis-Kaplan Executive Function System (D-KEFS) Verbal Fluency Test, and The Cognitive Log (Cog-Log) Video Narrative with surveys The Cognitive Log Participants will be asked to create a 10-15 minute video narrative on their experiences after being diagnosed with cancer.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method linear regression of pediatric quality of life (PedsQL), TIPI, and coded themes from video narratives on coherence, subjectivity and redemption at end of intervention - Approximately 60 minutes after enrolling on study Participants' composite scores of the 10 items that make up the emotional and social domains from the PedsQL, 15 items from the PedsQL cancer module, and the two items on the TIPI that measure Extroversion will positively covary with the resilient qualities of their narrative as measured by levels of narrative coherence, subjectivity, and redemption
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method linear regression of coded resilient qualities of narrative with Post Video Impression Questionnaire at end of intervention - Approximately 60 minutes after enrolling on study Resilient qualities of the narrative, as measured by levels of narrative coherence, subjectivity, and redemption, will predict the sum of 16 select items on the Post Video Impressions Questionnaire identifying positive impact associated with producing the narrative
linear regression of impact experienced from making the video narrative with summed scores of participants willingness to post online at end of intervention - Approximately 60 minutes after enrolling on study The sum of the 16 item composite scale measuring impact experienced from making the testimonial video, on the Post Video Impressions Questionnaire, will positively predict the summed scores of two items measuring participants' willingness to post the video online
linear regression of perceived impact with summed scores of participants willingness to post the video online at end of intervention - Approximately 60 minutes after enrolling on study The sum of the 7 item composite scale measuring the perceived impact on others who watch the video, on the Post Video Impressions Questionnaire, will positively predict the summed scores of two items measuring participants' willingness to post the video online
