Dual-process Model Of Denfense Against Death-related Thoughts In TMT:the Role Of Close Relationships

Anxiety is the source of all the fear,the face of this kind of anxiety is to protect themselves,the theory is to explain how the individual is to defend the cause of the death of anxiety theory.The theory holds that the defense of death anxiety is divided into proximal and distal two stages.In the end,the defense is the individual in the consciousness layer to avoid thinking about the death information,remote defense is to ease the anxiety caused by death in the conscious and subconscious levels.Proximal defense mechanism is active suppression,cognitive distortions,ignoring other cognitive strategies and distal defense mechanism is self-esteem and cultural world outlook,with in-depth study and found intimacy is distal defense mechanism in the preferred way,is the source of self-esteem and cultural world outlook,but its role in the cross-cultural applicability need further verification.The high school stage is the individual gradually weakening parent-child relationship partner relationships important period,research on high school students relationship situation and its role in the management of death fear is of great significance.Research through a paper and pencil test operation level of emotional high school students in the face of death,this index to analyze the different proximal defense if there is a close relationship between the individual differences.Study two present information of high school students to death and delay distraction task processing,through the IAT-Anxiety test subjects implicit Anxiety as distal defense index,verify relationship plays an important part in the distal defense,explore the distal defense of different intimate relationship between the individual differences.The results of the study are as follows:1,the relationship of the proximal defense:(1)the influence of average high school relationship level(3.34 + 0.35);(2)the relationship positively predict negative emotion(p<0.01).2,the influence of the intimacy of the distal defense:low intimacy group of implicit association test anxiety D value is higher than high intimacy group(p<0.01).The start of the individual information in the face of death,high intimacy experience more negative emotions,and after a certain time or after a high cognitive load,low close relationship between the individual tendency of implicit anxiety is higher than that of high close relationship between individuals.
