许多研究人员讨论了犯罪、自然灾害和大规模悲剧对团结产生的影响；然而，对于这些现象所涉及的过程，我们还有很多不了解的地方。我们以亨特对社区的私人、教区和公共领域的描述为基础，详细说明了产生和维持团结的社会关系。我们认为，针对特定事件的教区和针对特定事件的公共活动在令人发指的犯罪之后会产生团结。然而，一般的教区活动，例如参加当地组织会议和经常光顾当地企业，可以维持团结。利用 2007 年弗吉尼亚理工大学校园大规模谋杀 27 名学生和 5 名教职人员后收集的纵向数据，重复测量分析预测悲剧发生后 5、9 和 13 个月的团结程度，支持了我们的假设。
Numerous researchers discuss the solidarity-producing effects of crime, natural disasters and mass tragedies; however, there is much we do not understand about the processes involved in the phenomena. We specify the social relationships that generate and sustain solidarity by building on Hunter's descriptions of the private, parochial and public spheres of community. We argue that event-specific parochial and event-specific public activities generate solidarity after heinous crimes. However, general parochial activities, such as attending local organizational meetings and frequenting local businesses, sustain solidarity. Using longitudinal data collected after the mass murder of 27 students and 5 faculty members on Virginia Tech's campus in 2007, a repeated measures analysis predicting levels of solidarity 5, 9 and 13 months after the tragedy supports our hypotheses.
