Descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, correlation and stepwise multiple regression were used for data analysis. Results: The death anxiety positively correlated with depression and negatively with self-integrity,readiness of death, belief in life after death, and spiritual well-being. The factors influencing death anxiety were self-integrity, readiness of death, depression, and belief in life after death. Those four variables explained 21.6%of death anxiety. Conclusion: It is expected to serve as a useful tool for nurses who serve elderly people in the clinical field and local community to help get a better understanding of death, and it is expected to lay a theoretical foundation for the development of strategies geared toward alleviating death anxiety.
