A typology of near-death experiences
B Greyson
Cluster analysis of 89 near-death experiences yielded three discrete types
of such experiences: transcendental, affective, and cognitive. Demographic
variables did not differentiate individuals having these different types of
experiences, but cognitive near-death experiences were less frequent
following anticipated near-death events.
