Rominger, R. (2000). Empathic Near-Death Experience: Another Point on the Apparition - Deathbed Vision - Near-Death Experience Continuum. A theoretical paper submitted for continuation into the Doctoral level at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology.

This paper additionally focused on a case study of what has been termed an empathic near-death experience (Moody, 1999), and proposed the placement of the E-NDE into the apparitionâ???deathbed visionâ???NDE continuum.

Exploring the Integration of the Aftereffects of the Near-Death Experience: An Intuitive and Artistic Inquiry.
This study explored, generally, the integration of the aftereffects of exceptional experiences. More specifically, this study explored the integration of the aftereffects of the Near-Death Experiernce (NDE), which was chosen as an exemplar in the broad category of exceptional experiences. Results indicate significant (statistically and subjectively) changes after participation in a four week small group process including spiritual guidance/direction and expressive arts. Implications include a proposed unique small group process to be used by spiritual guides/directors, expressive art therapists, and psychotherapists with clients who have had spiritually transformative experirences (STE; Kason & Deglar, 1994) or who have been diagnosed with an Axis V code of Religious or Spiritual Problem (V62.89; DSM-IV-TR, American Psychological Association, 2000).
