Publication: Canadian Journal of Community Mental Health

Abstract

The present research offers an overview of principal theoretical approaches to understand and explain loneliness. The empirical part attempts to identify certain psycho-social correlates of recent and chronic loneliness, using U.C.L.A. Loneliness Scale in a sample of separated or divorced women (N = 75). Seven correlations (number of months since separation or divorce, number of months since the subjects lives alone, financial problems, age, length of marriage, origin of legal proceedings and absence of new love relationships) were found to be significant at .05 level and were discussed in relation to previous research.
