The Death Attitude Profile-Revised (DAP-R), one of the most widely used scales for assessing death attitudes is a multidimensional questionnaire capable of measuring a wide range of attitudes towards death. The aim of our study was to assess the reliability and validity of the Serbian version of the DAP-R. The study was conducted in October 2022 and included a total of 547 students of the Faculty of Medicine University of Belgrade (FMUB). Based on Cronbach's alpha coefficient values, our data show good reliability of the DAP-RSp (Serbian version). In our study, the confirmatory factor analysis showed a good fit of the data to the original factor structure with minor discrepancy; compared to the original version (five factors), our analysis yielded one more factor (six factors in total), however, almost all items had factor loading >0.3 on the appropriate scale
