Table 4.

Comparison between groups based on their exposure to a cadaveric specimen in the anatomy course at the time of the survey. Some students did not respond to this question (n = 201 responded). When comparing responses from students who had exposure to a cadaveric specimen versus students without exposure there was a significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.0001). More students in the exposure group felt that the anatomy course led them to reflect on the topic of death
