This study examined the effects of video psychoeducation about electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) on perceptions and knowledge about ECT. A pre-post design was used with a national sample of 1,068 adults who screened positive for depression. Participants' perceptions and knowledge about ECT were assessed before and after watching a psychoeducational video about ECT. Participants showed significant increases in positive perceptions and accurate knowledge about ECT after watching the psychoeducational video. In the perception domain, the items ECT can be lifesaving and fears that ECT can be painful showed the largest positive increases. In the knowledge domain, items related to ECT is one of the safest procedures performed and ECT can be given safely to older persons showed the largest increases. Over 20% of participants changed their mind and reported they were willing to try ECT after watching the video. Together, these findings suggest video psychoeducation about ECT holds great potential to improve perceptions and knowledge about ECT, particularly as new technologies are developed to create, distribute, and host videos to reach large audiences.
