Preferences and Values in End-of-life care. Contributions for Reflection

This work presents a survey and study conducted by the Research Group of the Faculty of Theology at UCA, which focuses on end-of-life spirituality practices. We carried out a nationwide survey in which we collected preferences and values regarding end-of-life care in the face of a hypothetical illness threatening one's well-being. Simultaneously, we considered some key sociodemographic variables with the aim of correlating respondents ' answers with the specific characteristics of each surveyed population. After providing context for the work and outlining the methodology used, we present the overall survey results and delve into particular topics, reflecting on them. In the conclusion, we discuss the limitations and possibilities of this research.
