웰빙'(well being)과 함께 최근 '웰다잉'(well dying)에 대한 사회적 관심이 '안락사'(安樂死) 문제를 계기로 촉발되어 인간 죽음의 존엄성에 대한 중요한 담론으로 대두되고 있다. '웰다잉'(well dying)은 그 어의대로 '좋은 죽음'을 의미하며, 이런 의미적 맥락의 연장선상에서 통상적으로 '준비된 죽음', '품위 있는 죽음', '아름다운 죽음'을 지칭한다. 본고에서 논자는 '죽음'을 교학의 출발점으로, 그리고 '죽음의 극복'을 교학의 종착점으로 삼고 있는 불교의 죽음관이 웰다잉에 대한 담론에 어떠한 기여를 할 수 있는지 면밀히 고찰하였다. 불교의 죽음에 대한 태도와 해석, 그리고 그 극복의 과정은 웰다잉에 대한 보다 풍부한 담론을 형성하는 단초가 되며, 특히 죽음의 극복을 육체적 생리적 영생으로서가 아닌 정신적 심리적 현상으로 해석하고 이러한 정신적 심리적 변화를 통한 사물의 진실상(眞實相)에 대한 깨달음[정각(正覺)]을 통해서 죽음을 극복하는 불교의 견해는 죽음불안의 극복 및 죽음교육에 많은 기여를 할 수 있다.

The result of the Q-shorting of the 34 Q-statements by 42 participants was analyzed with the PQM program. Result: Five cognitive types of the subjectivity about well-dying were identified and labeled as follows. Type I: Individual and preparation for the other world. Type II: Receptive to nature and fate. Type III: Oriental and family centered. Type IV: Realistic and self-independent. Type V: Altruistic and preparing for the other world.

Purpose: This paper aims to clarify the concept of well-dying in the sociocultural context of Korea. Methods: Walker and Avant's method was chosen for the concept analysis. Through a literature review of 36 papers, the attributes and definition of well-dying were derived. Results: The literature revealed that in Korean society, well-dying is defined as the process of actively preparing for death throughout life. The attributes of the concept are a reflection on death, death acceptance, searching for meaning, transcendence, advance decision-making, and sharing values with family. The motivation for thinking about death, the hope of dying with dignity, and the Korean cultural view of death precede the concept, followed by dying with dignity, personal and family happiness, and improved quality of life and death. Conclusion: This study may lead to the unification of concept use based on mutual understanding, thus enabling effective communication in research, education, and clinical settings. This can be the rationale for the development of tools and educational programs as well as establishing policies related to well-dying in Korea.

Purpose: This study investigated awareness of dying well, as well as attitudes and preferences toward advance directives (ADs), among elderly individuals who lived alone. Methods: The participants were 173 elderly people living alone. Data were collected from July 2019 to September 2019 using questionnaires on perceptions of dying well, awareness of advance directives, and general characteristics. Results: The majority of participants (68.2%) stated that they had never heard of advance directives. The information they requested to include in their advance directives mostly involved decisions on pain treatment, such as the use of analgesic drugs in the final stages of a terminal disease. Perceptions of dying well were statistically significantly different according to age and education. Conclusion: This study discussed the attitudes and preferences of elderly living alone regarding advance directives to provide basic resources for the systematic and active use of advance directives.

Purpose: This study aimed to measure the relationship between the recognition of well-dying, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and repulsion-related nursing homes and community-dwelling older adults. Method: A descriptive survey was conducted among 505 community-dwelling older adults aged over 65 years. Data were collected from October 25 to November 30, 2023, and analyzed using a t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation coefficients with SPSS/WIN 26.0. Results: The results reveal that the subjects' recognition of well-dying was 2.30, HRQoL was 0.84, and repulsion-related nursing home was 3.31 points. Recognition of well-dying was significantly correlated with HRQoL (r=.10, p=.024). Conclusion: The results indicate that consumer-centered, well-dying education programs for community-dwelling older adults should be developed and applied continuously through effectiveness verification.
