Older Adults' Views on Death

Victor G. Cicirelli, "Older Adults' Views on Death"
English | 2002 | ISBN: 0826170129, 0826170137 | 400 pages | PDF | 20.5 MB
During previous work on end-of-life decision preferences among older adults, Cicirelli (developmental and aging psychology, Purdue U.) was struck by the great diversity of their views regarding the issues involved. He looks at the views of people aged 70 and older, investigating whether their views contribute to their adjustment or maladjustment in the latter portion of their life, or might act as a constructive force to help them prepare for their eventual dying and death.
