Inhoud:
Male and female residents of a retirement community (N = 58), ranging in age from 52 to 94, were administered the Rappaport Time Line, the Death Anxiety Scale, and the Purpose-in-Life Test. Significant degrees of association were hypothesized to exist between temporality, death anxiety, and purpose in life. Correlational analyses supported the bask assumptions of this investigation: life purpose and death anxiety were found to be negatively correlated, life purpose was found to correlate positively with projection of future time, and death anxiety was positively correlated with temporal density in the present. Theoretical and clinical implications of the findings are discussed for elderly populations.
