Late Adulthood: Death, Dying, Bereavement and Widowhood

The final video in this series necessarily focuses on the end of late adulthood, which for human beings is death.

Dying and bereavement are experienced very differently in different cultures.

In this video Elizabeth Kubler-Ross explores the socio-cultural context of dying from a variety of perspectives.

Bereavement is also a process and its various aspects are examined as well.

Finally, widowhood, a state that will be experienced by half of all married people, is presented focusing on the differences in adjustment to widowhood that exists for men and for women.
