Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Parkes/Bowlby model of bereavement suggests that a grieving adult is much like an infant who is experiencing separation anxiety. This means that adults who are grieving may feel a sense of insecurity and anxiety, as if they have lost a part of themselves. The model also emphasizes the importance of attachment and the need to develop new attachments in order to move through the grieving process successfully.

 The Parkes/Bowlby model suggests that the longing to have the loved one return becomes most intense about one year following death. This is known as the "anniversary reaction" and is a common experience for many people who have lost loved ones. This does not imply that there are clear-cut stages of mourning, nor does it suggest that grief lasting longer than six months is maladaptive.
