Attitudinal changes of nursing students were measured before and after a palliative care module was taken. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and paired student's t-tests. Additional subgroup analyses were conducted based on age, gender and prior palliative care experience.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The overall increase in FATCOD-B scores was not statistically significant (p=0.705). However, students aged 28\u201335 showed a significant improvement in attitudes (p=0.014), suggesting that emotional maturity enhances receptiveness to palliative care education. Prior experience in palliative care was also associated with more positive attitudes post-intervention, though results were not statistically significant.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>While the educational intervention led to modest improvements in attitudes toward EOL care, particularly among older students, the findings highlight the need for personalised, sustained and reflective training approaches. Tailoring education to students\u2019 developmental stages and incorporating experiential learning can better prepare nursing students for the emotional challenges of EOL care. These insights have significant implications for the development of more effective palliative care curricula in nursing education.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.12968\/ijpn.2025.0048","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,20]],"date-time":"2026-03-20T16:35:38Z","timestamp":1774024538000},"page":"146-154","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Impact of palliative care education on nursing students\u2019 attitudes toward end-of-life care: a pre-post analysis"],"prefix":"10.12968","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Diego","family":"Lopane","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Registered nurse, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alessandra","family":"Dacomi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Registered nurse, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Daniela","family":"Cattani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Registered nurse, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chiara","family":"Provasoli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Registered nurse, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chiara","family":"Coldani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Registered nurse, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Giuseppina","family":"Tomaiuolo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Registered nurse, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Simone","family":"Cosmai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Registered nurse, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gloria","family":"Modena","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Registered nurse, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alice Maria","family":"Santagostino","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Registered nurse, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stefano","family":"Mancin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Registered nurse, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emanuela","family":"Morenghi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biostatistician, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Giuliano","family":"Anastasi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Registered nurse, Department of Trauma, AOU G.
