BEHAVIORAL

Faith-Based African American Cancer Survivorship Storytelling Intervention

The intervention will consist of participants viewing a selection of video recorded vignettes during 3 weekly sessions. There will be 5 vignettes included in each session with each vignette edited to a real time of 3-4 minutes (each session is 30 minutes). Since the intervention is designed to be self-administered, there will be a video recorded introduction and instructions for use narrated by the PI. The vignettes are of actual African American cancer survivors narrating stories of ways in which hymns can be used to overcome their anxieties and depressed moods through the use of a hymn. The hymns included represent exemplars from the 5 themes prevalent in the PI's previous research
