BACKGROUND: Death acceptance is essential for cancer patients in palliative care. Accepting their own death enhances readiness for serene passing.
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to examine the factors associated with death acceptance among cancer patients.
METHODS: This study employed a cross-sectional, causal relationship design. The participants included 240 Thai Buddhist patients with cancer (N = 240). Data were collected using self-administered questionnaires. Path analysis using Mplus 7 was utilized to test the hypothesized structural model.
RESULTS: The hypothesized model demonstrated satisfactory goodness of fit to the empirical data. χ2 (7, n = 240) = 6.674, p = .464. The observed factors collectively accounted for 27.5% Significant direct associations with death acceptance were identified. Buddhist beliefs about death (β = 0.236, p < .001), Buddhist practices (β = 0.180, p < .001), self-efficacy (β = 0.173, p < .001), and death anxiety (β = -0.188, p < .001). Indirect effects were additionally observed. Buddhist practices mediated the association between Buddhist beliefs about death and death acceptance (β = 0.072). Death anxiety mediated the associations between self-efficacy (β = 0.033) and severity of illness (β = -0.067) with death acceptance. Social support was not significantly associated with death acceptance (β = 0.071, p > .050).
CONCLUSION: This study highlighted the significant associated factors of death acceptance among cancer patients. The findings can serve as a guideline to promote death acceptance in patients with cancer.
