Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Rando's R Process Model of mourning is specific to Western society.Mourning is an action-oriented process involving recognizing the loss,reacting to the pain of separation,reminiscence,relinquishing old attachments,and readjusting to life after loss.Attachment,the foundation of Bowlby's (1980)four phases of mourning,is an instinctive behavior,which leads to the development of life-long bonds of affection between children and their primary caregivers.The four tasks of mourning theory (Worden,1982)describes how individuals help themselves through mourning and ask others for help.Kübler-Ross' (1969)classic theory identifies five responses to loss: denial,anger,bargaining,depression,and acceptance.
