Peer reviewedDenes-Raj, Veronika; Ehrlichman, Howard – Omega: Journal of Death and Dying, 1991
Subjective life expectancy, death anxiety, and health behavior were assessed in college students (n=36) with at least one parent who died prematurely of illness (PD group) and students (n=36) with both parents alive (PA group). PD group estimated their life expectancy to be shorter than the PA; subgroup of PD reported poorer diet. (Author/ABL)
