dc.description.abstractObjective: This study was carried out to determine the relationship between the attitudes of midwifery students about euthanasia and their religious attitudes. Methods: The universe of this cross-sectional study consisted of students studying in the midwifery department of a university in eastern Türkiye. The study was carried out with 284 volunteer midwifery students between November and December 2021. Descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation values were used in the evaluation of the data. Independent samples t-test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used for normally distributed variables, and Spearman correlation analysis was used for non-normally distributed variables. The study data were collected through Google Form. Participants were asked a consent question via the Google form to confirm whether they wanted to participate in the study. Results: The mean total Health Professional Euthanasia Attitude Scale (HPEAS) score of the participants was found as 83.04±16.07, while their mean total Ok-Religious Attitude Scale (ORASI) score was determined as 34.01±6.00. Accordingly, the participants had moderate attitudes about supporting euthanasia, while their religious attitudes were positive. Conclusions: As a result of this study, it was observed that most of the students had negative attitudes towards euthanasia, and one of the factors that affected these attitudes was religious belief.
