Purpose: This study is being done to see if a standard tool used to check anxiety in white men works well for African American men. The tool is used only for men who have prostate cancer. It is meant to see how the cancer affects men. If we have a good tool, it is more likely that we can help those who have high levels of anxiety. This test is known as the Memorial Anxiety Scale for Prostate Cancer (also called the MAX-PC).
