Through the Viewing Tube: Videocassette Psychiatry
Abstract
The authors, who have been exploring the potential of videotape presentations for psychiatric education, discuss the issues that have arisen since they began developing their "Electronic Textbook of Psychiatry." They consider such questions as the adequacy of the television image in capturing emotion and transmitting information, the ideal length of the taped segment, and the flexibility and limits of the medium. They conclude that videotape presentation may (as have dream interpretation. psychometrics, linguistics, and other useful approaches to behavior) contribute to our conception of mental disorders.
