Understanding the attitudes of a particular society on a "good death" is important when it comes to end-of-life decision-making and palliative care. In the Republic of Croatia no systematic research has been done on the attitudes of the general population about the concept of a "good death". This cross sectional survey was conducted on a three-stage random sample, stratified by regions, counties and locations within those counties (N = 1203) during November and December, 2019. ANOVA, to determine differences, factor analysis and multiple regression analysis were used. The most important characteristics of a good death outlined by the respondents were: the absence of pain, the presence and unencumberedness of family and loved ones, the importance of a sense of fulfilment and meaning in life in this regard, reconciliation with God, the presence of awareness and sobriety, and the possibility of treatment.
在临终决策和姑息治疗方面，了解特定社会对“善终”的态度非常重要。在克罗地亚共和国，尚未对普通民众对“善终”概念的态度进行系统研究。这项横断面调查于2019年11月和12月对一个分三个阶段的随机样本进行，该样本按地区、县以及这些县内的地点分层（N = 1203）。使用方差分析来确定差异、因子分析和多元回归分析。受访者列出的善终最重要特征包括：没有痛苦、家人和爱人的陪伴且不受阻碍、在这方面生活的成就感和意义的重要性、与上帝和解、有意识和清醒、以及接受治疗的可能性。
