Abstrakt: Based on findings from age-standardized survey data, divorced women feel more restricted in their relationships with others and have less favorable attitudes toward their ex-spouses than do widows. The greater clarity of the widowed role may provide more social support and ease adjustment to the end of a marriage for the widow in ways unavailable to the still somewhat stigmatized status of the divorcee.
