Abstract

The authors posed two questions regarding the notion of an afterlife to respondents in a recent thanatological investigation. Respectively, these concerned belief in a personal afterlife and—among those who considered it at least somewhat likely—how “good” or “bad” they thought that it would be for them. Virtually all individuals who thought that they were going to experience an afterlife also thought that it was going to be a favorable existence for them.
