Abstract:
Comparison of scores on Templer's Death Anxiety Scale for samples of students in Spain and five Arab countries indicated that, in general, the students in Arab countries scored higher than the Spanish students. Similar results were obtained for other measures of death anxiety. Such differences may be associated with social factors including religiosity, the cultural meaning of death, and quality of life.
