Sensemaking in Organizations: Taking Stock and Moving Forward (2014, background): “For example, at the individual level, the loss of or damage to a significant aspect of the self is associated with intense negative emotions (Maitlis, 2009; Neimeyer et al., 2002; Pals & McAdams, 2004).”
Complicated Grief and the Quest for Meaning: A Constructivist Contribution (2006, background): “…self-narrative are inherently social, insofar as we necessarily rely on the intimate validation of our sense of self by particular others, as well as communal and cultural discourses of identity that define our social roles both before and after bereavement (Neimeyer, 2005c; Neimeyer et al., 2002).”
Making sense of the meaning literature: an integrative review of meaning making and its effects on adjustment to stressful life events. (2010, background): “Neimeyer, Prigerson, and Davies (2002) noted that, in bereavement, meaning making also “resides and arises in language, cultural practices, spiritual traditions, and interpersonal conversations, all of which interact to shape the meaning of mourning for a given individual” (p. 248).”
Loss, Grief, and the Search for Significance: Toward a Model of Meaning Reconstruction in Bereavement (2006, background): “The role that such contexts play in reconstructing meanings after bereavement has been examined in a handful of qualitative studies, but such social factors in grieving call for much more analysis (Neimeyer et al., 2002; Walter, 1999).”
