abstract="OBJECTIVE: To compare the attitudes of Spanish citizens with existing legal models on euthanasia and assisted suicide to identify which of them the citizens could agree with.; Methods: Data collected by the Social Research Centre in Study 2,803 &quot;care for patients who are terminally ill&quot; in 2009 were analysed. Descriptive analysis and comparisons with McNemar test were carried out.; Results: Spanish populationclearly supports the practice of euthanasia for the terminally ill. Agreement is lower in the case of physician assisted suicide and degenerative diseases.; Conclusions: The Belgian model matches the approach favoured by Spanish public opinion closest. This represents a starting point for the social, political and legal debate needed to regulate individuals' rights at the end of life. © 2014 CSIC.<p /><p>Language: es</p>",
