Recently, subjective SES has shown to be more predictive of health and cardiac outcomes than actual SES. Vital exhaustion (VE) is another risk factor associated with CVD and is characterized by feelings of excessive fatigue and demoralization, as well as in increase in irritability. To our knowledge, socioeconomic differences, both subjective and objective, with respect to VE, have not been explored. Therefore, the current study examined the associations between subjective SES and VE among cardiac patients. Death is a natural and inevitable phenomenon that everyone has to face it. Nevertheless, our society seems to refuse everything that could be related to illness, suffering and death. Daily we overhear news about unexpected deaths, which highlights the importance of being aware of one's death as a part of the cycle of life. The aim of this study was to analyze the main factors that could help to face the own death from young people's perspective. The sample was made up of 60 young people, aged between 18 and 27. All participants were evaluated by the "Helping to Die in Peace Questionnaire" (CAMP) by Bayés et al., (2000) , which is composed of two major items. The first one assesses the aspects that could help people to die in peace, answering to eleven sentences according to a 5 points scale. In relation to the second one, participants have to select the two most important factors when death is close, through the eleven previous statements.
