Question

In what stage of Elizabeth Kubler-Ross's five stages of dying does a person promise good behavior in the hope that God will grant an extension of life?

Answer 1

Bargaining.

Step-by-step explanation:

Elisabeth Kubler-Ross modeled a theory of "Death and Dying" which helped in the treatment of terminally ill patients. In her book "On Death and Dying", she categorized five stages of death:

1. Denial
2. Anger
3. Bargaining
4. Depression
5. Acceptance

Also known as DABDA.

The stage asked in the question, is the third stage, i.e., Bargaining.

In this stage, a person who is dying make certain promises to God of improving behavior. And in return he/she expects God to do something in favor of him/her. It could be an extension of his/her own life or the life of loved ones.

So, the correct answer is Bargaining.
