Summary |
Starting in the 1960s, the knowledge about grief centered on the existence of specific stages of grief to better understand the phenomenon. This theory was based on two hypotheses: the sequential appearance of specific affective states; shock and denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptation; theses states will consistently appear in an invariable order. Data from many studies have not provided consistent support for this model; and this for at least two major reasons. Firstly, emotional states linked to grief are variable and non-specific. No emotional state is essential to define grief except strong yearning. Secondly, if they do appear, these affective states often overlap, and may subside and return spontaneously in a different order, thus refuting the notion of a stage theory. The current article makes the case for no longer teaching the stages of grief, aside from a historical perspective.
