In this study we tested some assumptions about the use of euphemism in communicating with cancer patients. Does an explicit statement about the diagnosis of cancer cause patients to respond with greater anxiety than when uncertainty or ambiguity is allowed to persist? Do patients believe they cope better with cancer when the diagnosis is explicit?
