Abstract:This report examines the results of 3 studies on the effects of coping and mastery modeling on 106 pedodontic patients with and 30 patients without a prior filling or extraction. Before undergoing a filling, the 8-year-old subjects viewed a videotape depicting (a) a coping model receiving a filling; (b) a mastery model undergoing identical treatment; or (c) a child playing with an adult. A standardized interview indicated that subjects appropriately perceived the differences between coping and mastery models. Inexperienced patients who viewed either model were significantly less disruptive on the Behavior Profile Scale than inexperienced control subjects. Modeling did not affect experienced patients, who were significantly more cooperative than inexperienced patients. (Author/SE)
