About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess patients' knowledge and attitudes about genetic testing before and after viewing an educational video. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Did the video change participants' knowledge and attitudes about genetic testing? * Did participants make an informed choice about pursuing genetic testing?

Participants will:

* Complete a baseline survey * View educational video * Complete follow-up survey

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

Change in Multi-Dimensional Measure of Informed Choice (MMIC) - Cancer Knowledge Scale

The MMIC is a compound assessment tool with three elements which are used together to differentiate an informed choice from a less informed choice. An informed choice is demonstrated by: Achieving =75% (6 of 8 questions) correct responses on the knowledge scale AND Making a decision that is in keeping with one's values related to the outcome (positive vs. negative) A less informed choice is demonstrated by: Achieving \<75% correct responses on the knowledge scale OR Achieving =75% correct responses on the knowledge scale but making a decision that is inconsistent with one's values (e.g., a patient values the information that may be obtained but chose not to undergo testing OR a patient does not value the information and chose to undergo testing)
