Attitudes Toward Digital Immortality and Related Factors Among Older Adults
Recent advances in artificial intelligence-based resurrection technologies may impact our perspectives on life and death. However, empirical research on this subject is currently limited. Therefore, we investigated attitudes toward digital immortality and their association with psychosocial developmental features, such as ego-integrity and gerotranscendence, among Japanese older adults. A total of 296 older Japanese adults completed a questionnai…
Development and Initial Validation of the Death Attitudes in Relationships Scale
Relationships with close relatives, friends, and future generations should be critical in a collective society; therefore, the fear of separation from others, and care for others, must be core components of attitudes concerning death. However, such relational attitudes toward death have been insufficiently investigated. This study develops a new psychological scale for assessing death attitudes considering relationships with loved ones and future…
Changing Funerals and Their Effects on Bereavement Grief in Japan
Bereavement is an extremely personal feeling, but Japanese society tends to disapprove of displays of negative personal emotion or weakness. For ages, mourning rituals like funerals provided an exception where social permission was given to sharing grief and seeking support. However, the form and significance of Japanese funerals have changed rapidly over the past generation, and especially since the advent of COVID-19 restrictions on assembly an…
How funerals mediate the psycho-social impact of grief
Background: As populations age and pandemics continue, grief disrupts the health and productivity of increasingly bereaved populations. While funerals can reconnect old friends and relations to provide psycho-social support, and satisfying funeral participation reportedly reduces such psychiatric complications of grief, the psychological effects of recent restrictions on funerals remains unclear. This first English report of open-ended responses …
Mourners’ Dissatisfaction with Funerals May Influence Their Subsequent Medical/Welfare Expenses—A Nationwide Survey in Japan
Japan's super-aged mortality rate bereaves millions of people annually, threatening the mental health of the bereaved population. Previous research suggests that participation in satisfying funeral rituals can protect or improve the health of a bereaved population-but pandemic restrictions threaten traditional funeral assemblies. To determine how bereaved mourners' mental health-and consequent dependence upon medical, pharmaceutical, or social se…
Evaluations of Funerals and Health Trajectories in the Second Year After Bereavement—The Ongoing Japan National Survey
Our nationwide postal survey analyzing 190 responses from Japanese bereaved who had responded a year earlier found that funeral dissatisfaction rose during the second year after the funeral. Controverting previous research advocating participation in funeral planning, elderly bereaved spouses forced to decide about and/or pay for the funeral showed elevated grief as much as 2 years later. While not reaching levels diagnosed as prolonged, traumati…
Unexplored Costs of Bereavement Grief in Japan
Bereaved families may experience psychological and physical problems increasing their reliance on medical, pharmaceutical, and financial/legal services. Our Japan-wide survey (n = 1078) researched bereaved who showed increased reliance on medical, pharmaceutical, and financial/legal services. Increased use was most evident in the '50's age bracket, and for unemployed widows; it corresponded less with low annual income than with high income declin…
How Grief, Funerals, and Poverty Affect Bereaved Health, Productivity, and Medical Dependence in Japan
Grief has been shown to weaken bereaved persons' health, but measurements of their lost time and medical expense remain rare. Funerals traditionally managed and assuaged grief through ritual expression, approval, and social support. Research suggests that satisfying funeral participation reduces grief, while poverty exacerbates it. We hypothesized that: (1) psycho-physical symptoms of grief, (2) abbreviation/dissatisfaction in the funeral, and (3…
