Subjects were 224 students of a medical college, average age 23.3. Results were as follows: 1) 81.2% of the second grade students, 78.7% of the fourth grade students and 54.5% of the sixth grade students had no experience of death. 2) Two latent variables on ""Image of death"", which were called Sensual and Experiential recognitions, were abstracted by Factor Analysis (Promax Rotation). 3) 78.1% of the second grade students, 69.1% of the fourth grade students and 71.2% of the sixth grade students desired ""Notice of death"". 4) 60.9% of the second grade students, 57.4% of the fourth grade students and 56.1% of the sixth grade students had no desire for life's prolongation by medical treatment. 5) Most students knew the term of ""Hospice"" and 79 % of them ""Desired to die at home."" 6) 37.5% of the second grade students, 47.9% of the fourth grade students and 40.9% of the sixth grade students thought ""Death should not be actively discussed"". 7) 53.1% of the second grade students, 48.9% of the fourth grade students and 59.l% of the sixth grade students thought that ""Death education was necessary"". 8) Death's meaning was answered by the majority as, ""the inescapable"", ""the termination of life's journey"", ""destiny's determination"". Factor Analysis abstracted two latent variables: ""Attachment to life"" and ""Expectation of death"". 9) Covariance Structure Analysis (Multiple Indicator Multiple Cause Model) did not reveal the determining factors, which influence the behavior of medical students.}, pages = {23--28}, title = {<資料>医学生に対する「死の教育」アンケート調査}, volume = {9}, year = {1992} }
