Thompson, Edward H.
Omega: Journal of Death and Dying, v16 n3 p233-42 1985-86
Examined sociodemographic background, nursing unit, amount of experience caring for dying patients, death anxiety, and attitudes toward working with dying patients among 56 nurses in palliative, surgical, and pediatric services. Work setting was found to be a more significant force in shaping attitudes toward caring for the dying than was experience. (Author/NRB)
