ABSTRACT
In this paper, we shall
describe the way in which some Vietnamese people cope with death and dying.
Authors surveyed approximately 302 relative people in the north of Vietnam. The
sample showed broad demographic variation. Among respondents, 73% were female
and 27% were male. The instrument shows a good reliability of the total scores
(Cronbach’s α = 0.93). Both
exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis are used. The
model tested was a relatively simple model with three latent factors. They are
belief, fear, and ritual and all of them are positive correlated. The
relationships among factors are further analyzed and the mediating
relationships are found.
