There is an increased need for study of minority populations such as the aging Korean senior citizen immigrant population. The United States has always been a melting pot of various ethnic groups. It is important for social workers to develop a greater understanding of the needs of these groups as they enter the population and particularly as they advance in age. As we grow old, we often become more helpless and more dependent on external resources. Therefore, it is critical for social workers to understand how the specialized needs of a minority population may differ from the population at large. This study explored the impact of spirituality and religion on attitudes toward death and dying among Korean senior citizens living in the Chicago area.

520 $a There is an increased need for study of minority populations such as the aging Korean senior citizen immigrant population. The United States has always been a melting pot of various ethnic groups. It is important for social workers to develop a greater understanding of the needs of these groups as they enter the population and particularly as they advance in age. As we grow old, we often become more helpless and more dependent on external resources. Therefore, it is critical for social workers to understand how the specialized needs of a minority population may differ from the population at large. This study explored the impact of spirituality and religion on attitudes toward death and dying among Korean senior citizens living in the Chicago area.
520 $a The study looked at the beliefs and attitudes of Christians and Buddhists as well as Korean seniors with no religious affiliation. The methodology of this study was phenomenology. The researcher interviewed selected participants encouraging them to discuss their own understandings in their own terms during the interview. The researcher then incorporated a sensory and noetic component to the structure of intentional experience.
520 $a The researcher found through the interviews that: (1) Spirituality and religion have an impact in coping with the stress associated with life-threatening crises; (2) People who have positive attitudes have strong ego-integrity and better physical and mental health; (3) Elderly people have lower death anxiety than people in middle age, especially when they have religion, believe in the afterlife and have completed their life tasks; and (4) Culturally, many Korean seniors adhere to traditional Korean burial customs even when these customs conflict with their current religious beliefs and even though they do not expect their children to carry on these traditions.
