The authors studied the case material for patients treated with either psychoanalysis or brief therapy to examine the basis for the various states of pathological grief after berevavement. They view these states as intensifications or unusual prolongations of states found in normal grief and describe them in terms of the reemergence of self-images and role relationship models that had been held in check by the existence ofthe deceased person. This conclusion concerning preexisting mental schemata leads to an elaboration and partial revision of theories of regression, ambivalence, and introjection as causes of pathological grief.
作者研究了接受精神分析或短期治疗的患者的病例资料，以探究丧亲后各种病理性悲伤状态的基础。他们将这些状态视为正常悲伤中所发现状态的强化或异常延长，并根据在逝者在世时受到抑制的自我形象和角色关系模型的重新出现来描述它们。这一关于先前存在的心理图式的结论，导致了对作为病理性悲伤原因的退行、矛盾情感和内摄理论的详细阐述和部分修订。
