Testing terror management theory in advanced cancer
Death anxiety is common in advanced cancer due to heightened mortality salience. We tested terror management theory (TMT) in this population ( N = 305) by evaluating the buffering effect of the distal defenses (attachment security, meaning, self-esteem) on the impact of physical impairment (a proxy for mortality salience) on death anxiety. Patients with greater numbers of strong distal defenses reported lower death anxiety than those with no stro…

Cultural syndromes and age moderate the emotional impact of illness intrusiveness in rheumatoid arthritis
Given an aging and increasingly pluralistic society, diversity can no longer be ignored in addressing the psychosocial impact of chronic, disabling disease
Do all orgasms feel alike? Evaluating a two‐dimensional model of the orgasm experience across gender and sexual context
The characteristics common to all human orgasm experiences and potential gender and contextual factors affecting these experiences were investigated in two studies. A two-dimensional descriptive model of the orgasm experience was evaluated by testing hypotheses concerning (a) fit of the model to adjective-ratings data describing male and female orgasm experiences, and (b) sexual context effects on the importance of model components. In the first …

Special care and procedures may be required to obtain data from children and to protect the privacy of sensi…
