摘要
老年心理健康是老龄化社会的重要研究课题,而探讨老年心理健康离不开研究老年死亡态度。文章系统梳理了老年死亡态度的结构和特征、影响因素及其与心理健康的关系。分析了恐惧管理理论对老年死亡态度研究的影响。从轻视死亡接受、缺少理论整合、研究方法单一、忽视文化差异、逃避根本难点等五方面对老年死亡态度研究进行了评价。
The psychological health of older adults is an important issue for an aging society.To address this issue has to take the death attitudes of older adults into consideration.This paper is intended to review the vast literature on older adults' death attitude,including its structure and features,various correlates,and its relationship with psychological health.In addition,terror management theory is also described from the perspective of the studies on older adults' death attitudes.Previous studies on this issue have such limitations as:neglecting death acceptance;lacking an integrated theory;using limited research methods;overlooking cultural differences;and avoiding tough but key problems.
