Abstract
Background and Purpose: Fear of death is commonly experienced by humans and most people prefer not to think about their own mortality. Dialysis patients just as other chronic patients experience a great amount of stress. Use of coping mechanisms and promoting spirituality can help with accepting the inevitable reality and enhancing quality of life. Spiritual attitudes (spiritual intelligence and spiritual health) determine one's manner of dealing with life events, viewpoints, and perceptions of death. In this study, we sought to explore the relationship of spiritual health and intelligence with quality of life and death anxiety.
