The use of multidimensional scales for assessing fear of death among nursing students can assist in teaching and evaluating the effectiveness of targeted training in thanatology. Research has demonstrated good psychometric characteristics of the Czech version of the Collett-Lester Fear of Death Scale (CL-FODS). It was applied to nursing students ( N = 256), who reported as their biggest fear the process of their own dying. Greater fear of death and dying was found in students who had no experience of the dying and death of a loved one. Good internal consistency was achieved for the four subscales of the Czech CL-FODS

Anxiety · Czech · Death anxiety · Death education · Fear of death · Psychiatry · Sample (material · Scale (ratio · Social science · Sociology · Thanatology · Clinical Psychology · Death Anxiety and Social Exclusion · Grief, Bereavement, and Mental Health · Medicine · Nursing · Optimism, Hope, and Well-being · Psychology
