General and family medicine physicians’ perception of the concept of good death: a contribution to the validation of the scale

The Portuguese version of the Concept of a Good Death scale demonstrates good psychometric properties among GFM physicians. Its application may support better understanding of healthcare professionals' perceptions of a good death, promote more person-centered end-of-life care and contribute to palliative care education. Further studies are recommended to validate the scale across other professional and cultural groups and to strengthen its validation through approaches such as confirmatory factor analysis.
