Program Notes
terror management theory is a working psychological theory that proposes a basic instinctual conflict within the human psyche: the avoidance of death and the knowledge of its inevitability. this conflict creates terror, which may be managed through escapism, cultural beliefs, and other forms of meaning that seek to give individual life a significance capable of conquering mortality.
