  • The purposes of the study were to discover whether pastors did or did not touch their patients, to determine patients perceptions of the effects of being touched by their pastors, and to determine patients’ perceptions of the effects of being touched by physicians and nurses (other than in the normal course of treatment). The study explored patients’ positive and negative feelings and thoughts about being touched and the places on their bodies where they were touched. The goal of the study was to determine whether physical touch was or was not important to the patients. If it was affirmed that being physically touched by pastors, physicians, and nurses was important to patients, such information could be helpful to those professional people in ministering to patients. The methodology consisted of taking a taped interview from thirty randomly selected, adult patients from the hospital census who had been visited by their pastors. A pre-designed, structured, interview questionnaire was used by the investigator in the interviews. Where appropriate, the chi-square goodness of fit test was used to determine the extent to which observed frequencies deviated from frequencies to be expected under the null hypothesis.
