Preferred term

relational implications of fear of death  

Definition(s)

  • Fear of death is a universal human attribute, the avoidance of which is the motivational impetus for a substantial proportion of human behavior. Given the fundamentally social nature of our species, it is not surprising that close relationships, such as those between family members, friends, and romantic partners, are greatly influenced by concerns about mortality.
