title: A cancer education study in The Netherlands based on the AACE/NCI Cancer Education Survey.
abstract: A Dutch Cancer Education Study demonstrated that the data collection instruments developed for the U.S. AACE/NCI Cancer Education Survey could also be used for the same kind of studies in foreign countries. Where needed, the data collection instruments were modified to the Dutch national situation. In this way, an impression was obtained on several aspects concerning undergraduate cancer education in the Dutch medical schools. Based on the combined findings of the U.S. Cancer Education Survey and the Dutch Cancer Education Study, a number of recommendations can be made for application to student cancer education in The Netherlands.
