Abstract

In this study, the focus is on death attitudes among the clergy in the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland and their role in clergy work. The aim is to find out whether these attitudes have any practical relevance in clergy work and to see if the death attitudes are linked to the work orientation and wellbeing among the clergy. The death attitudes are measured by the Death Attitude Profile-Revised DAP-R (N=650). The results show that death attitudes have a multifaceted role in clergy work. Negative death attitudes were linked to an outward motivational orientation in work and lower levels of work wellbeing, and positive, on the other hand, to lower levels of burnout and higher levels of work engagement. These results show the importance of the competence related to death in clergy work and these notions should be acknowledged in the education and further education of the clergy.
神职人员工作中的死亡态度:芬兰神职人员的死亡态度及其与工作取向和幸福感的联系
在这项研究中,重点是芬兰福音路德教会神职人员的死亡态度及其在神职人员工作中的作用。目的是找出这些态度在神职人员工作中是否有任何实际意义,并了解死亡态度是否与神职人员的工作取向和幸福感有关。死亡态度通过死亡态度简档修正DAP-R(N=650)来测量。研究结果表明,死亡态度在神职人员工作中起着多方面的作用。消极的死亡态度与工作中的外向动机取向和较低的工作幸福感有关,而积极的死亡态度则与较低的倦怠水平和较高的工作参与度有关。这些结果表明了与死亡相关的能力在神职人员工作中的重要性,这些观念应该在神职人员的教育和继续教育中得到承认。
