A Re-Examination of Widowhood and Morale

Morgan, Leslie A.

Journal of Gerontology, 31, 6, 687-695, Nov 76

Effects of marital status on morale relative to five covariates were examined with 232 widowed and 363 married women aged 45-74. Lower morale scores found among the widowed may be partly attributable to other factors commonly associated with this status and not due to the role of widowhood per se. (Author)
