Levels of Death Anxiety in Terminally Ill Men: A Pilot Study.
Hayslip, Bert, Jr.; And Others
Omega: Journal of Death and Dying, v24 n1 p13-19 1991-92
Administered measures of overt and covert fear of death to 20 healthy men and 13 men diagnosed with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). Groups did not differ significantly on overt measure; AIDS group had higher total scores on covert measure. Findings suggest that one's life trajectory is redefined when the diagnosis of terminal illness is made. (Author/NB)
