    Main Results:

    • 'Attitude to and care of the patient' was the most frequently assessed affective skill, excluding technical abilities.
    • A list of desirable attitudes for radiography students was compiled.
    • The analysis focused on defining what constitutes being 'good with the patient'.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed list of desirable attitudes has limitations.
    • Ongoing work addresses the findings from this analysis.
    • Further research aims to refine the understanding of affective skills in radiography.
