I haven't seen this brought up (excuse me if it has been), but generally self esteem and motivation tend to correlate both with higher education and less fear of death.
People with less appreciation for themselves will generally have a more difficult schooltime in relation to their peers but will also fear death more as they are less content with who they are and what they have accomplished so far.
Another finding was that a high educational level prevents negative attitudes, as fear of death and avoiding the topic.
While probably true, one must also consider positive attitudes catalysts for higher education.
Of course all of this comes from personal experience, I've seen guys with IQ's of over 150 continuously do far worse in school than complete douchebags, all due to mindset.
also, yay first post!
