Interpersonal Dynamics and the Anticipation of Death by Violence.
Mahoney, John
Essence: Issues in the Study of Ageing, Dying, and Death, v3 n1 p13-19 1979
Investigates self-destructive behavior in terms of interpersonal strategies of manipulation. Males and females anticipating sudden violent death (SVD) showed higher needs for control while SVD males demonstrated impaired competency in the expression of affectional needs. Inability to express affection may lead to perceptions of the self as unlovable and enhance risk-taking. (Author)
