According to TMT theorists, symbols that create cultural worldviews are fiercely protected as representations of actual life.

With regards to the studies that found similar effects, TMT theorists have argued that in the previously mentioned studies where death was not the subject thought about, the subjects would quite easily be related to death in an individual ’ s mind due to " linguistic or experiential connection with mortality ".( p.

TMT theorists argue, essentially, that unless something is an important element of a person ’ s anxiety-buffering worldview or self-esteem, it will not require broad meaning maintenance.

In sum, TMT theorists believe that MMM cannot accurately claim to be an alternative to TMT because it does not seem to be able to explain the current breadth of TMT evidence.

As an example, TMT theorists assert that mortality salience would not be a threat to meaning, since our eventual demise is a necessary condition of life.

TMT theorists agree that uncertainty can be disconcerting in some cases and it may even result in defense responses, but note that they believe the inescapability of death and the possibility of its finality regarding one ’ s existence is most unsettling.

Though TMT theorists acknowledge that many responses to mortality salience involve greater approaches ( zealousness ) towards important worldviews, they also note examples of MS which resulted in the opposite, which offensive defensiveness cannot account for: when negative features of a group to which participants belong were made salient, people actively distanced themselves from that group under MS.

In response, TMT theorists argue that this critique is mixing up fear related to immediate danger with anxiety related to thoughts of threats that will or may occur eventually.

The Meaning Maintenance Model ( MMM ) was initially introduced as a comprehensive motivational theory that claimed to subsume TMT, with alternative explanations for TMT findings.

TMT does not just attempt to explain what self-esteem is, but rather tries to account for why we need self-esteem, and what psychological functions it may serve.

Furthermore, the DTA hypothesis lends support to TMT in that it corroborates its central hypothesis that death is uniquely problematic for human beings, and that it is fundamentally different in its effects than meaning threats, ( i. e., Heine et al., 2006 ) and that is death itself, and not uncertainty and lack of control associated with death ; Fritsche et al.

( 2004 ), in their particular study on TMT, tested the preferences for different types of leaders, while reminding people of their mortality.

The original researchers note that, in an effort to keep the theory simple, existing theories to integrate were selected based on their shared attributes, and that these theories are still of value, as TMT does not contain the same depth of detail as each individual theory.

Of 641 children with pure teratoma, nine developed TMT: five carcinoma, two glioma, and two embryonal carcinoma ( here, these last are classified among germ cell tumors ).

iTRAQ, Tandem mass tags ( TMT ) and Isotope-coded affinity tag ( ICAT ) are protein mass-tags that consist of a covalently attaching group, a mass ( isobaric or isotopic ) encoded linker and a handle for isolation.

The answer, according to TMT, is that self-esteem is used as a buffer for people to help them cope with anxiety ; it is a coping mechanism set in place to help control their terror, along with realizing that humans are animals just trying to manage the universe around them.

EOKA-B and the Turkish Resistance Organization ( TMT ) were responsible for many atrocities which resulted in cementing tensions and led to total isolation of the communities with Turkish Cypriots withdrawn into enclaves.

TMT travels to Thane ; ST runs up to Thane & Bhiwandi, NMMT till Vashi while MBMT aims at reducing the overhead on BEST for diffusing local traffic towards Borivali.

General Grivas informed Karayiannis that the Swedish battalion of the UN Forces in Cyprus had abandoned their positions on the hill known as Akoni in the Kokkina area on August 6, that Cypriot National Guard units which took their place came under fire from units of the TMT stationed on the nearby hill known as Lourovouno, and that therefore Grivas had ordered an attack on Lourovouno for the morning of August 7.

TMT, fundamentally, seeks to elucidate the causes and consequences of a need for self-esteem, and theoretically, it draws heavily from Ernest Becker ’ s conceptions of culture and self-esteem ( Becker, 1971 ; Becker, 1973 ).

The " what " for TMT is that self-esteem is a sense of personal value, that is obtained by believing in two things:

Several critiques have been proposed against TMT from evolutionary psychologists – for reasons including that fear is an adaptive response in individuals ' that has come about as a result of natural selction ; without these adaptions human beings would have never been able to avoid maladaptive situations.

TMT used the symbol of the Gray Wolf (), an important archetype from Turkish mythology and symbol of Turkish Nationalism in mainland Turkey.

Researchers test TMT by exposing people to reminders of their mortality.

The last Turkish Cypriot to be a member of the central committee of AKEL, Derviş Ali Kavazoğlu, was killed by TMT in 1965.

BUSES: Kasarwadawali is well connected by buses, be it BEST, TMT, NMMT or ST. One can easily reach Thane Station, Mulund, Vashi, Seepz, Gorai, Borivali, Mira Road and Bhayendar.

The town enjoys a supply of electricity from Reliance Energy and now days people have option of TATA Energy as well, telephone services from MTNL, piped gas from Mahanagar Gas, and bus services by BEST, TMT, NMMT, ST & MBMT.

Yesterday Was Dramatic-Today Is OK is the debut album by experimental Icelandic musical group múm, originally released on TMT ( Iceland ) on 11 March 2000, and then on 2 April 2001 in the United Kingdom.

Turkish Cypriots state that the hostilities forced such an amalgamation while the Greek Cypriots state that the Turkish Cypriots did so without any pressure from them, but rather by the Turkish Cypriot paramilitary organization TMT so that to apply uniformity.

The Turkish Resistance Organisation ( – TMT ) was a Turkish Cypriot pro-taksim paramilitary organisation formed by Rauf Denktaş and Turkish military officer Rıza Vuruşkan in 1958 as an organisation to counter the Greek Cypriot Fighter's Organisation EOKA and also to force partition of the island.

Communication with its members in Cyprus was by radio and the honorary leader of the TMT was Fatin Rüştü Zorlu.

TMT claims that their efforts were simply in response to a real threat against their community by EOKA-B, after 1963, by the Cypriot Government ( which by then was almost exclusively Greek Cypriot in makeup, due to Turkish_Cypriot Deputies withdrawing from Government ).

TMT activity during 1963-64 is referred to as Tourkantarsia ( Turkish mutiny ) by Greek Cypriot nationalists.

Terror management theory ( TMT ), in social psychology, states that human behavior is mostly motivated by the fear of mortality.

TMT is supported if being reminded of death causes people to cling more strongly to their worldview.

How people respond to their fears and anxiety of death is investigated in TMT.

A teratoma with malignant transformation ( TMT ) is a very rare form of teratoma that may contain elements of somatic ( non germ cell ) malignant tumors such as leukemia, carcinoma or sarcoma.
