Coping Repertoires of Families Adapting to Prolonged War-Induced Separations

McCubbin, Hamilton I.; And Others

Journal of Marriage and the Family, 38, 3, 461-471, Aug 76

The investigators studied the adjustment of 47 families of servicemen missing in action. Findings are explained in terms of psychological and sociological theories of coping. (Author)
