<P> Using a test of death - thought accessibility (DTA), involving an ambiguous word completion test (e.g. "COFF__" could either be completed as either "COFFEE" or "COFFIN" or "COFFER"), participants who had read the essay attacking their worldview were found to have a significantly higher level of DTA than the control group, who read a similar essay attacking Australian cultural values . Mood was also measured following the worldview threat, to test whether the increase in death thoughts following worldview threat were due to other causes, for example, anger at the attack on one's cultural worldview . No significant changes on mood scales were found immediately following the worldview threat . </P> <P> To test the generalisability of these findings to groups and worldviews other than those of nationalistic Canadians, Schimel et al conducted a similar experiment on a group of religious individuals whose worldview included that of creationism . Participants were asked to read an essay which argued in support of the theory of evolution, following which the same measure of DTA was taken as for the Canadian group . Religious participants with a creationist worldview were found to have a significantly higher level of death - thought accessibility than those of the control group . </P> <P> Goldenberg et al found that highlighting the similarities between humans and other animals increases death - thought accessibility, as does attention to the physical rather than meaningful qualities of sex . </P> <P> The term World View denotes a comprehensive set of opinions, seen as an organic unity, about the world as the medium and exercise of human existence . World View serves as a framework for generating various dimensions of human perception and experience like knowledge, politics, economics, religion, culture, science and ethics . For example, worldview of causality as uni-directional, cyclic, or spiral generates a framework of the world that reflects these systems of causality . </P>
