Outline of Final Research Achievements

In developing the model, was conducted using a survey of Self-Consciousness Scale, Multidimensional Empathy Scale, Normative Attitude toward Helping, Death Attitude Profile-Revised Japanese version, Cognition of Student Nurses on Terminally Ill Patients, attributes and experience of death. Covariance structure analysis was used for the modeling.
The constructs of the model were 'public self-consciousness', 'private self-consciousness', ' emotional susceptibility ', 'others-oriented emotional reactivity ', 'ability to imagine', 'perspective taking', 'self-oriented emotional reactivity', 'fear of death', 'death avoidance ', 'care for the terminally ill patients' and 'feelings towards the terminally ill patients'. From the goodness of fit index, it is appropriate to say that the model showed good fit.As a result of having conducted educational program based on a model, the student changed in the desirable direction.
