配偶的死亡被描述为一个人一生中面临的最具破坏性和最困难的角色转变。使用1984年和1986年由国家卫生统计中心进行的老龄化纵向研究的数据，我们检查了两年期间与功能残疾水平变化相关的移动概率，同时控制了最近的丧偶。我们发现，在1984年至1986年期间，工具性残疾的增加越大，搬家的可能性就越大。我们还发现，当健康状况下降时，成为寡妇的事件大大增加了搬家的可能性。
The death of a spouse has been described as the most disruptive and difficult role transition that an individual confronts throughout the life course. Using data from the 1984 and 1986 waves of the Longitudinal Study of Aging conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics, we examined the probability of moving associated with changes in functional disability levels over a two-year period while controlling for recent widowhood. We found that the greater the increase in instrumental disability between 1984 and 1986, the greater the probability of a move. We also found that the event of becoming a widow greatly increases the probability of a move when health declines.
