Investigation of a Typology of Life and Death as an Indicator of Quality of Life

A typology of life and death was investigated in relation to employment characteristics, comparisons, work orientation, and depressive symptoms among funeral directors. Even though conceptions of life and death are a part of the same life cycle, they often have been studied separately. Four types (positivists, temporal optimists, resigned futurists, and negativists) were differentiated by social-psychological attributes rather than by employment characteristics. Implications for practice are noted.
