TABLE 2.
The comparison of the STAI-state score before and after the video-based MMI or written information in the two groups
| Control group (n=38) | Video-based MMI group (n=36) | p | |
|---|---|---|---|
| STAI-S pre-informational | 45.4±5.8 | 45.1±5.3 | 0.812 | 
| STAI-S post-informational | 45.2±5.1 | 41.1±4.9 | 0.004 | 
| p’ | 0.210 | <0.001 | 
Data are given as mean±standard deviation. STAI-S: State-trait anxiety index-state; MMI: Multi-media information. p the p value derived from the comparison of the video and control groups. p’ the p value derived from the comparison of the pre- and post-informational STAI-S scores.
