摘要

尽管研究证明了有意识的死亡反思的积极结果,但很少有研究直接检验存在主义心理学家的核心命题,即死亡反思为更真实的生活提供了机会。目前的研究比较了长期暴露于真实死亡线索的个体(葬礼/墓地工作人员,n=107)与自主动机匹配的对照样本(n=121)。它还评估了六个结构在死亡反思的生长导向过程中的调节作用:心理灵活性、好奇心、中性死亡接受、死亡焦虑、方法导向应对和回避型应对。殡葬/墓地工作人员的自主动机显著更高,与死亡相关的工作与自主动机的相关性更大,灵活性更高,死亡焦虑更低。这既有助于理解哪些人在面对死亡时最有可能经历成长动机,也有助于促进这些动机以提高幸福感的潜在途径。

Living Authentically in the Face of Death: Predictors of Autonomous Motivation Among Individuals Exposed to Chronic Mortality Cues Compared to a Matched Community Sample.

Despite research demonstrating positive outcomes of conscious death reflection, very little research directly examines a core proposition of existential psychologists-that death reflection provides an opportunity for more authentic living. The current study compared individuals chronically exposed to genuine mortality cues (funeral/cemetery workers, n = 107) to a matched control sample (n = 121) on autonomous motivation. It also assessed the moderating role of six constructs implicated in growth-oriented processing of death reflection: psychological flexibility, curiosity, neutral death acceptance, death anxiety, approach-oriented coping, and avoidant coping. Funeral/cemetery workers were significantly higher on autonomous motivation, and death-related work was found to have a more positive association with autonomous motivation for those higher on flexibility and lower on death anxiety. This has implications for both understanding which individuals are most likely to experience growth motivations when confronting death, and potential avenues for facilitating these motivations to enhance well-being.
