Contents: This article discusses three general issues that must bc considercd in implementing a program of behavioral intervention to assist cancer patients: ( 1 ) how to train patients in behavioral techniques, (2) how to implement the use of those techniques in a clinical setting, and (3) how to enhance the rapport between patients and therapists. The author describes his use of audiotapes to teach patients the techniques of active or passive relaxation with guided imagery. These tapes have provided a cost-effective and therapeutically valid method of helping patients control the aversive effects of chemotherapy and other medical procedures.
