Research suggests that watching shows, especially medical shows such as Grey's Anatomy and Chicago Med, can result in more concern about personal health. A health psychologist is interested in seeing if this holds true on a college campus. She administers surveys to college students to measure television viewing habits and health concerns such as fear of developing diseases and disorders seen on these shows. Survey respondents are grouped into three groups; little or no television watching, moderate television watching, and substantial television watching. Their concern over their health is then examined.
