Abstract

Sympathy cards are a popular channel by which grief support is communicated. In order to better understand the supportive messages used in sympathy cards, a content analysis was performed. The messages found in one hundred cards from major greeting card companies were coded based on their level of person centeredness (Burleson, 1994) and their use of grief management strategies (Marwit & Carusa, 1998). Results indicate sympathy cards typically rely on moderate and high person centered messages. The majority of strategies previously identified by the modified Support-Intended Statements Scale (SISS) were used. However, one unique strategy labeled “difficulty knowing what to say” was identified.

慰问卡是一种流行的悲痛支持沟通渠道。为了更好地理解慰问卡中使用的支持信息，进行了内容分析。从主要贺卡公司的100张卡片中发现的信息是根据他们的以人为中心的水平(Burleson, 1994)和他们使用的悲伤管理策略(Marwit & Carusa, 1998)进行编码的。结果表明，慰问卡通常依赖于适度和高度以人为中心的信息。使用了先前由修改后的支持意向陈述量表(SISS)确定的大多数策略。然而，他们发现了一个独特的策略，即“不知道该说什么”。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
