该研究考察了讨论创伤经历时的社会约束是如何干扰认知处理和从损失中恢复的。在婴儿死亡后3周（T1）、3个月（T2）和18个月（T3）对丧亲母亲进行访谈。在受社会约束的母亲中，T1阶段的侵入性思想与T2和T3阶段谈论婴儿死亡呈负相关，被概念化为认知加工的标志。在不受约束的母亲中发现了相反的关联。控制最初的痛苦水平，随着时间的推移，社会约束母亲的T1侵入性想法与抑郁症状之间存在正相关。然而，在不受约束的社会关系中，较高水平的T1侵入性想法与T3抑郁症状的减少有关。
The study examined how social constraints on discussion of a traumatic experience can interfere with cognitive processing of and recovery from loss. Bereaved mothers were interviewed at 3 weeks (T1), 3 months (T2), and 18 months (T3) after their infants' death. Intrusive thoughts at T1, conceptualized as a marker of cognitive processing, were negatively associated with talking about infant's death at T2 and T3 among socially constrained mothers. The reverse associations were found among unconstrained mothers. Controlling for initial level of distress, there was a positive relation between T1 intrusive thoughts and depressive symptoms over time among socially constrained mothers. However, higher levels of T1 intrusive thoughts were associated with a decrease in T3 depressive symptoms among mothers with unconstrained social relationships.
