Abstract:
The current paper reflects on the issue of attitudes toward death. More specifically, how to face the death of a loved one. In general, most people avoid the topic of death in their daily lives until, that is, a close acquaintance or important person passes away. In preparation for this inevitability, education on the topic of death is much needed. For this purpose, this paper will conduct a philosophical analysis of fiction novel protagonist’s attitudes towards death as they encounter the subject, in order to lay a foundation for humanities-based education on the subject. Analysis centers upo

Abstract:
In the article, we deal with death as a universal problem of human existence, which nevertheless experiences certain transformations over time, since it depends partly on the specific historical and social context. We talked about death with people who no longer practice traditional posthumous customs and whose religious belief does not affect attitudes towards death, i.e. with people who have a ?mundane?, skeptical attitude towards death. The co-author talked with her informants from Croatia about the meaning and impact of the deaths of those close to them on themselves, but also the presence

Abstract:
This study attempts to explore the attitude toward death, which ranges from fear of death to its acceptance, held by students of one of the universities in Hong Kong. It also tries to examine the relationship between their attitude toward death and their ratings of life and death. Another aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a death education course offered in that university. It is found that the present death attitude of Hong Kong university students is not satisfactory and that it has been significantly improved after students took a death education course.

Abstract In this study, the focus is on death attitudes among the clergy in the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland and their role in clergy work. The aim is to find out whether these attitudes have any practical relevance in clergy work and to see if the death attitudes are linked to the work orientation and wellbeing among the clergy. The death attitudes are measured by the Death Attitude Profile-Revised DAP-R (N=650). The results show that death attitudes have a multifaceted role in clergy work. Negative death attitudes were linked to an outward motivational orientation in work and lower

Abstract:
End of life decisions, such as physician-assisted suicide (PAS), have continued to be controversial as health care policy, moral, and individual health care issues. This study considers knowledge of end of life options and death attitudes as predictors of attitudes toward PAS. Data were gathered from approximately 300 adults through a mailing sent to a household research panel. Validated measures of attitudes toward PAS, knowledge about that state's assisted suicide laws, demographics, and attitudes toward death as measured through the Death Attitude Profile-Revised (DAP-R) were collected and

In the year 2023, Indonesian national code was legalized. Inside the new KUHP, there is a chapter 100 that regulates the decline of death penalty to life imprisonment on a 10 (ten) year probation that must qualify as “attitude and deed”. It can cause uncertainty about the law because to date there are no standards or standards used to judge attitudes and good deeds. Therefore, this article will discuss an analysis of the “attitude and good deed” of the penal code as the basis for death penalty to life imprisonment and the law enforcement analysis of the conditions of attitude and good deed in

Abstract:
For most parts of human history, death was an integral part of life, something that prehistoric and premodern man had no other option than to live with as best as possible. According to historians, death was familiar and tamed, it was at the center of social and cultural life. With the coming of modern secular society, death was increasingly sequestrated and tabooed, moved to the outskirts of society, made invisible and forbidden. Death became a stranger, and the prevalent attitude towards death was that of alienation. At the threshold of the 21st century, the topic of death again began to att
