ANS: C
Yearning and searching characterize the second bereavement phase in the Attachment Theory. Emotional outbursts of tearful sobbing and acute distress are common in this phase. During the numbing phase, the family is protected from the full impact of the loss. During disorganization and despair, the reason why the loss occurred is constantly examined. Reorganization is the last stage of the Attachment Theory in which the person accepts the change and builds new relationships.
