This study aims to compare attitudes toward death between university students who receive nursing education and who receive religious education. This study is cross-sectional in nature. It was conducted with the participation of 197 university students in a university located in the Eastern part of Turkey between June and August, 2017. Data were collected using the socio-demographic form and Turkish form of Death Attitudes Profile-Revised. Of all the students participating in the study, 52.8% received nursing education and 47.2% received religious education. It was found that majority of both groups had no education about death, or found the education they received insufficient. Besides, no significant differences were found between the students who received nursing education and who received religious education in terms of their attitudes toward death (p > 0.05). Results showed that students who received nursing education and who received religious education had similar attitudes toward death. In conclusion, the education given to students about the religious or health aspects of death in accordance with the curriculum seemed to have no effects on students' developing positive attitudes toward death.
本研究旨在比较接受护理教育的大学生和接受宗教教育的大学生对死亡的态度。本研究本质上是横断面研究。2017年6月至8月期间，在土耳其东部一所大学的197名大学生参与下进行了该研究。使用社会人口学表格和土耳其语版修订版死亡态度量表收集数据。在所有参与研究的学生中，52.8%接受护理教育，47.2%接受宗教教育。结果发现，两组中的大多数人都没有接受过关于死亡的教育，或者认为他们接受的教育不足。此外，在对死亡的态度方面，接受护理教育的学生和接受宗教教育的学生之间没有发现显著差异（p>0.05）。结果表明，接受护理教育的学生和接受宗教教育的学生对死亡的态度相似。总之，根据课程安排给予学生的关于死亡的宗教或健康方面的教育似乎对学生形成对死亡的积极态度没有影响。
