This study explores the mcuLal health of older women who have lost a spouse. The specific aims of this stz.dy were: (1) to identify the incidence of depression or other psychiatric morbidity among widows during the first two years of bereavement; and (2) to evaluate a model which incorporates: suddenness of the death event, other concurrent life events, supportive and unsupportive social ties, and coping behavior as predictors of widows' mental health. The subjects were 364 widows between the ages of 50 and 86. The study employed a longitudinal panel design with data collection intervals at 6 weeks, and 6, 12, 18, and 24 months following the death of the spouse. Data was collected through semi-structured home interviews which incorporated a number of standardized rating scales and questionnaires. Findings suggest that the depressive symptomatology and negative mood states experienced by the majority of widows reflect normal grieving rather than psychiatric morbidity. For those women who do experience psychiatric morbidity, interventions directed toward assisting high risk widows to learn more active ways of coping with their stressors are suggested to help reduce the severity of their grieving.
