  1. Here are the slides for a recent presentation I gave of our study on #existential #psychology osf.io/kwjsy

    In the study we coded and interpreted 803 short text responses about either #death or toothache. We found little to indicate #DeathAnxiety or #DefenseMechanisms. Article and dataset are #OpenAccess.

    Article in @collabraoa with Sina Storelv as first author is available here: online.ucpress.edu/collabra/ar

  2. #Existential philosophy and psychology assume that strong negative thoughts about #death influences many aspects of our lives, often #unconsciously.

    In an article just published in #Collabra: Psychology (n=803), we found that "death" was seen as less negative and more positive than "toothache". We found little to indicate #DeathAnxiety or #DefenseMechanisms. Article and dataset are #OpenAccess. This is Sina Storelv's first first authored paper!
