Mrs. Mallard first cries in Chopin's "The Story of an Hour," at the news of the death of her husband: she did not hear the story like many women heard the same, with a paralyzed reluctance to accept its meaning. At once, she wept, unexpectedly, wildly lost, in her sister's embrace.

The response of Mrs. Mallard to the news of the death of her husband is that of a woman released from a lengthy jail sentence. She is shocked by silent disbelief, overwhelmed by emotion, hit by a feeling of relief that she is released from the marriage burden.

i think the correct answer would be adjustments in life roles.  this causes for one to adjust or change totally his/her career or lifestyle since the present is not beneficial to the life role he is at. for instance, you became a mother you would of course stop going to malls and enjoying life outside. you would be staying at home taking care of your child.
