Miscarriage: A Special Type of Family Crisis.

Day, Randal D.; Hooks, Daniel

Family Relations, v36 n3 p305-10 Jul 1987

Surveyed 102 women about their experience with miscarriage. Found that family resource variables were a much stronger predictor of level of crisis and recovery than were personal or community resource variables. Adaptation and cohesion were significant predictors of speed or recovery and level of crisis, respectively. (Author/NB)
