This book presents an introduction to the methodology of structural equation modeling, illustrates its use, and goes on to argue that it has revolutionary implications for the study of natural systems. A major theme of this book is that we have, up to this point, attempted to study systems primarily using methods (such as the univariate model) that were designed only for considering individual processes. Understanding systems requires the capacity to examine simultaneous influences and responses. Structural equation modeling (SEM) has such capabilities. It also possesses many other traits...

Existential and Spiritual Issues in Death Attitudes provides: an in-depth examination of death attitudes, existentialism, and spirituality and their relationships; a review of the major theoretical models; clinical applications of these models to issues such as infertility, bereavement, anxiety, and suicide; and an introduction to meaning management theory and how it can be applied to grief counseling.
In this new volume, death is treated both as a threat to meaning and as an opportunity to create meaning. The first section introduces theory and methodology to connect the...

Death and ageing are two topics not often discussed together in the present literature. This text bridges the fields of gerontology and thanatology. Death attitudes - defined as attitudes towards the dying process, end-of-life decision making, and death itself - are explored. Those contributing to this volume hail from several specialized backgrounds including gerontology, death, education, and general psychology. This mix of contributors adds to the interdisciplinary perspective of the text.
