Cinemeducation is the use of film in medical education. It was originally coined by Matthew Alexander, Hall, and Pettice in the journal Family Medicine in 1994[1] and later used by Matthew Alexander, Anna Pavlov, and Patricia Lenahan in their text of the same title.[2] Cinemeducation emphasises the psychosocial aspects of medicine.[3] It has been used in teaching family systems theory,[4] end-of-life care,[5] medical professionalism and medical ethics,[6] and in psychiatry[7][8] and mental health services.[9]
