摘要
Two hundred sixty undergraduate college students (167 women, 93 men) served in a study to ascertain the relationships among loneliness, optimism, pessimism, and death anxiety. Corroborating previous data, the results indicated that loneliness was positively related to pessimism but negatively related to optimism. Optimism and pessimism were negatively related. Contrary to initial predictions, death anxiety was not consistently related to the other factors.
