配偶的死亡通常需要寡妇从其他人那里获得赡养,但人们对这种替代赡养来源的适应意义知之甚少。丧偶3-30个月的老年妇女(N=322)在一年内接受了7次访谈,以调查社会网络替代(从替代社会关系获得支持)和补偿(从这些替代社会关系获得心理利益)。三种替代形式(形成新的社会关系、重新点燃休眠的关系和强化现有的关系)随丧偶时间的长短而不同。然而,不管丧偶的时间长短,更多的替代与较差的心理健康有关。社会网络替代似乎发生在寡妇身上,但替代关系带来的补偿利益更是难以捉摸。(《心理信息数据库记录(C)2022年APA》,版权所有)
The death of a spouse often requires widows to derive support from other people, but little is known about the adaptive significance of such substitute sources of support. Older women (N= 322) widowed 3-30 months were interviewed 7 times over 1 year to investigate social network substitution (derivation of support from alternative social ties) and compensation (derivation of psychological benefits from these alternative ties). Three forms of substitution (formation of new social ties, rekindling of dormant ties, and intensification of existing ties) varied with the duration of widowhood. Regardless of the duration of widowhood, however, greater substitution was related to worse psychological health. Social network substitution appears to occur in widowhood, but the compensatory benefits of substitute ties are more elusive.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
