Purpose: This methodological study was conducted to test the reliability and validity of an instrument that measures attitudes of advance directives (ADs) among nurses. Methods: 1) Sixteen items related to attitudes in the English version of the Knowledge, Attitudinal, and Experiential Survey on Advance Directives (KAESAD) were forward/backward translated into Korean. 2) The content was validated by an expert panel (three nursing professors and eight hospice nursing specialists). 3) The preliminary 12 items were selected as a tool to assess the Korean version of Nurses' Attitudes towards Advance Directives (NAAD-K). 4) The instrument was validated by a survey (n=216). 5) It was confirmed to use the 12 items for the final version of the instrument. Results: NAAD-K was shown to be valid in terms of factors, items and content. The three factors extracted from the factor analysis were named as follows: Caring for patients with an AD (factor 1), nurses' role in informing patients (factor 2) and patient right (factor 3). The three factors explained total variance 57.796%. Factor loadings of the 12 items ranged from 0.47 to 0.93. For the 12 items, Cronbach's alpha was 0.81, and Guttman split-half coefficient was 0.78. Conclusion: This instrument was identified to be applicable with satisfactory reliability and validity for further use in measuring nurses' attitudes towards ADs in hospice and palliative care.

Purpose: This descriptive correlation study was done to investigate the influence of older person's ego integrity and knowledge of advance directives on their attitude toward withdrawal from life-sustaining treatment. Methods: The participants were 155 older persons residing in B city. Data were collected from February 11 to March 8, 2019. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and stepwise multiple regression analysis. Results: Ego integrity was positively correlated with knowledge of advance directives and attitude toward withdrawal from life-sustaining treatment. Knowledge of advance directives was positively correlated with attitude toward withdrawal from life-sustaining treatment. The factors influencing attitude toward withdrawal from life-sustaining treatment were participants' economic status, ego-integrity and knowledge of advance directives. These variables explained 17.1% of older person's attitude toward withdrawal from life-sustaining treatment. Conclusion: The findings indicate that ego integrity and knowledge of advance directives are important factors in changing older people's attitude toward withdrawal from life-sustaining treatment. Therefore, systematic programs to enhance the older person's ego integrity level and improve their knowledge of advance directives should be developed.
