Abstract
This study examined the effects of primarily didactic and primarily experiential death and dying training upon conscious and unconscious death anxiety of 74 female practical nursing students. No differential effects were found. However, post-test scores on the Templer Death Anxiety Scale were significantly lower than the pretest scores for both groups. This reduction was maintained at 8-week follow-up. The discussion addresses practical implications of the study, as well as implications for future research.
