Abstract

Materials & Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study which was performed on 55 Physicians working in medical centers of Jahrom in 2019. Data were collected using demographic form and Euthanasia Attitude scale (EAS) and analyzed by SPSS 24 software using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: 27 (62. 8%) of the Physicians participating in the study were male and 28 (65. 1%) were married.
