However, little is known about what needs to be considered when developing an exhibition space for ABL in a palliative care setting. This study aimed at providing an overview of needs and preferences from a patient perspective.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec002\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Patients were included through purposive sampling based on the following criteria: WHO performance status 0 or 1,\u2009\u2265\u200918 years, Dutch proficiency, and ability to come to the hospital. For the online sessions, access to the internet, a device, and a microphone were required. Patients participated in an ABL session either online or in the hospital followed by a semi-structured interview. The transcribed interviews were thematically analyzed using both deductive and inductive approaches.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec003\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Participants (n\u2009=\u200913) had a positive experience with ABL either online (n\u2009=\u20096) or in the hospital (n\u2009=\u20097). The results showed the multidimensionality of the patients\u2019 needs and preferences regarding the exhibition and ABL, from preferences regarding the exhibition space and needs for accessibility both online and on-site, to personalization of ABL by the facilitator.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec004\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our study showed that the hospital and online museum are appropriate and accessible environments for an exhibition for ABL. A varied selection of artworks might contribute most to a meaningful experience. Furthermore, we identified the patients\u2019 need for a person-centered approach in ABL in palliative care, in which not only the facilitator, but also health care professionals play an important role.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0342436","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,17]],"date-time":"2026-02-17T18:31:15Z","timestamp":1771353075000},"page":"e0342436","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Patients\u2019 needs and preferences in developing Art-Based Learning in outpatient palliative cancer care: A qualitative study"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"21","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-2380-8977","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Marike","family":"Geurts","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shailoh R.
