摘要

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine Chinese Canadian attitudestoward end of life decisions. While extensive information is available on attitudes towards end of life decisions in general, little is known about attudies of specific cultural communities. Within Wastern health care, autonomy is the dominant value on which the intellectual and moral foundation of end of life decisions are based. At the heart of this value is the belief that everyone is entitled to free choice, self determination, and privacy. Yet for many people of non-Western origin the image of the self is based on his or her relations with others rather than individual free will. A Chinese sample has been selected because of the contrast this group represents in relation to an autonomy based perspective and because of the demographic significance of the Chinese in Canadian society. Methods: Three elements of end of life decisions are explored in this research project: (1) advance care planning, (2) truth telling, and (3) decision to forgo treatment. Because of the complexity of phenomena at the intersection of attitudes toward end of life decisions in relation to culture, this research project is an ethnographic, qualitative study. The constant comparision method was used for analysis.
