Three works of art were analyzed using the validated Visual Thinking Strategies technique. Data collected included a postsession questionnaire and transcriptions of audio-recorded sessions. Data analysis involved both qualitative and quantitative methodology.Results: Fifty students participated; all participants completed the postsession questionnaire and 10 participated in the audio recorded sessions. Total 82% found the experience "very enjoyable" and 86% agreed that the paintings positively affected their understanding of how radiologists provide care to patients; 96% would recommend this session to others. Exploring representational paintings of radiology encounters seemed to influence perception and understanding of radiology with students reporting "light bulb moments;" create a dissonance between the student experience and the experience depicted in the paintings; and address gaps in content specific knowledge.Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that analyzing paintings depicting radiology encounters with patients can challenge negative stereotypes that medical students have of the radiology profession and radiologists. This arts-based learning module employing a learning strategy such as Visual Thinking Strategies, should be considered by the radiology profession as a strategy to positively inform and educate trainees about the specialty. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
