Euthanasia is legal in Belgium if due care criteria are met, which is judged by committees including physicians, ethicists, and jurists. We examined whether students in these disciplines differ in how they judge euthanasia as an acceptable act. A cross-sectional, anonymous e-mail survey revealed that they have similar attitudes and accept its legalization. Therefore, joint decision-making of physicians, ethicists, and lawyers regarding euthanasia seems to have a common attitudinal base in Belgium. However, they differ to some extent regarding the conditions they put forward for euthanasia being acceptable. Philosophy of life (religion) was an independent predictor of these attitudes.
在比利时，如果符合适当照护标准，安乐死即属合法，这由包括医生、伦理学家和法学家在内的委员会进行判定。我们研究了这些学科的学生在判断安乐死是否为可接受行为方面是否存在差异。一项横断面匿名电子邮件调查显示，他们态度相似，且接受安乐死合法化。因此，在比利时，医生、伦理学家和律师在安乐死问题上的联合决策似乎有共同的态度基础。然而，在提出安乐死可接受的条件方面，他们在一定程度上存在差异。生命哲学（宗教）是这些态度的一个独立预测因素。
