death anxiety  

Definición

  • Long the focus of spiritual belief and philosophical conjecture, death and the attitudes of human beings toward it have become legitimate topics of psychological study since the middle of the 20th century. As ways of measuring death fear and anxiety have grown more sophisticated, and as the range of people studied has grown more diverse, researchers have produced a sizable scientific literature on the causes, correlates, and consequences of death anxiety and related responses.
