Although grief is a reaction to a social loss, it has been viewed almost exclusively through the lens of individual psychology and not sociology. In this article, we suggest that more attention to sociological aspects of grief is warranted. We propose a micro-sociological theory of bereavement and grief to complement, not replace, psychological perspectives. We assert that bereavement represents a state of loss-associated social deprivations (e.g. social disconnection). Furthermore, we postulate that addressing social deprivations (e.g. enhancing social connection) will lessen severity of distressing, disabling grief and, thereby, promote adjustment to loss. Future research is needed to test our theory and the hypotheses that follow from it in the service of promoting adaptation to bereavement.

适应损失的微观社会学理论

尽管悲伤是对社会损失的反应,但它几乎完全是通过个人心理学而不是社会学的视角来看待的。在本文中,我们建议有必要更多地关注悲伤的社会学方面。我们提出了一种关于丧亲和悲伤的微观社会学理论,以补充而不是取代心理学观点。我们断言,丧亲代表了一种与损失相关的社会剥夺状态(例如社会脱节)。此外,我们假设解决社会剥夺(例如增强社会联系)将减轻痛苦的严重程度,使悲伤失去能力,从而促进对损失的调整。未来的研究需要检验我们的理论以及由此产生的假设,以促进对丧亲之痛的适应。
