TY - JOUR PY - 1992// TI - Confirmation of Tabachnick and Klugman's hypothesis that the death instinct is constant JO - Perceptual and motor skills A1 - Saucer, P. R. SP - 1065 EP - 1066 VL - 74 IS - 3 N2 - In reporting the accident death rate and the chronic liver disease death rate for 1980, the Bureau of the Census divided the United States into nine areas. To test Tabachnick and Klugman's hypothesis that the amount of death instinct per capita remains constant across regions, the 1980 death rates for accidents and chronic liver disease were correlated. Contrary to earlier studies, the present study gave support for Tabachnick and Klugman's hypothesis.
