This study examines the apparent greater concern for death among Mexican Americans than Anglo Americans and the rela tionship between death concern and psychological adjustment. The sample consisted of Mexican American and Anglo college students. Subjects were administered the Death Concern Scale (Dickstein, 1972) and a modified version of the Adjective Check List (Gough & Heilbrun, 1965). A significant finding corrobo rated previous research on the greater concern for death by Mexican Americans; however, no correlation was found in either group on death concern and adjustment. An interpreta tion is offered suggesting that death concern as a measure of "adjustment" or "maladjustment" may be contingent upon the population being studied and its perception of reality. Impli cations for psychotherapy with Mexican Americans are also discussed. |
