The Stigma against Dying and Suicidal Patients: A Replication of Richard Kalish's Study Twenty-Five Years Later.
Lester, David
Omega: Journal of Death and Dying, v26 n1 p71-75 1992-93
Study of prejudice directed toward deviant and psychiatric groups and toward religious and ethnic groups involving 44 college student subjects replicated results of 25-year-old study. Deviant and psychiatric groups, including people dying from cancer and suicide attempters, received more prejudice than did religious and ethnic groups. Extraversion was associated with less prejudice toward almost all groups. (Author/NB)
