AnnotationThe death of a spouse after many years of marriage is one of the most common of all stressful life transitions. The authors note that bereavement research is only now beginning to systematically test interventions other than the traditional self-help type of strategy. Written from a US perspective, their paper reviews some of most relevant literature on bereavement interventions; promotes the use of theory in developing and testing bereavement interventions; describes the essential features of Strobe and Schut's 1999 dual process model (DPM); and presents a 14-week intervention plan to use and test with the DPM model. (RH).
