Popis William McCorkle takes up what is probably the oldest ritual behaviour in our species, namely, actions and behaviours dealing with death and the dead. McCorkle focuses on the cognitive processes that may be triggered by dead bodies. Based upon experimental evidence, McCorkle concludes that individuals do not react the same way to dead bodies and this difference seems to be a measurable index based upon certain personality traits that are innate, developmental, and culturally constructed.
