Omega: Journal of Death and Dying, v28 n3 p229-45 1993-94
Interviewed 150 widows, then used 4 indicators for adjustment to widowhood (functioning in everyday living, depression level, health status, life satisfaction) to examine factors that may affect adjustment. Found indicators associated with different clusters of predictors. Two predictors were associated with all four indicators: widow's locus of control and present standard of living as compared to prior one. (Author/NB)
