A Struggle for the “Good”
The studies examining the impact of Covid-19 restrictions on bereaved people’s grief experiences largely assumed that people mostly complied with health measures. Our study explores disruptions to the measures to perform funeral and social rituals, examining in which context they took place, how they were experienced and what they allowed in the bereaved’s grieving processes. A mixed-method was used to analyze data collected through self-reported…
Why Are Therapists Walking the Talk? Exploring the Person of the Therapist in Walk‐and‐Talk Therapy
A qualitative meta-analysis examining the perceived impact of supervision on therapeutic competence in psychotherapists who work with minority clients
Psychotherapeutic work with minority clients requires the acquisition of a set of competences that allow therapists to be responsive to specific client needs in this population. Although supervision is widely recognized as an important context for professional development, existing qualitative studies have examined its role in fragmented ways, and no review has systematically explored how therapists benefit from supervision in the work with minor…
Grief Trajectories in Men and Women
Gender differences in grief expression have been widely studied, yet findings remain inconsistent. Some research reports higher grief intensity in women, while others find no difference. Two possible explanations are: (a) the neglect of third variables interacting with gender, and (b) men and women follow distinct grief trajectories. This study employed an observational longitudinal design to examine both hypotheses using data from Canada, Belgiu…
Une revue critique des méthodes d’échantillonnage et de recrutement dans la recherche sur le deuil et méta-méthode d’études investiguant l’effet de genre dans le deuil
La surreprésentation des participantes existe dans les recherches sur le deuil. Cependant, peu d’études examinent systématiquement dans quelle mesure cette surreprésentation est liée aux méthodes d’échantillonnage et de recrutement. Une revue méta-méthode de 33 études récentes examinant les différences de genre en termes de deuil a été réalisée. Les résultats ont révélé que la majorité des études avaient porté sur des personnes âgées et/ou veuves…
Gender differences in grief and growth
The grieving process exhibits significant variability influenced by cultural and gender factors. Inconsistencies in gender and cultural differences may be explained by the overrepresentation of bereaved women in the samples. This study explores gender differences in grief and post-traumatic growth (PTG) across Belgium, Canada, and Spain. Utilizing a gender-matched controlled design, the study analyzed data from 244 men and 244 women. Each man was…
Are Mediators of Grief Reactions Better Predictors Than Risk Factors? A Study Testing the Role of Satisfaction With Rituals, Perceived Social Support, and Coping Strategies
The present study aimed to assess the mediating role of adjustment processes in known risk factors associated with prolonged grief disorder. Data were collected in March–April 2021 through an online survey of 542 Canadian adults bereaved since March 2020. The mediating role of satisfaction with funeral rituals, bereavement support, and coping strategies on grief outcomes was tested using structural equation modeling. Results showed that such adju…
Toward a better assessment of coping with bereavement
Coping strategies are key adjustable elements mediating the relationship between risk factors and grief outcomes. It is essential to assess coping correctly. Scales based on the Dual Process Model of Coping with Bereavement have tended to confuse coping strategies and symptoms. The Coping with Bereavement Questionnaire was created to address such shortcomings. This article uses two datasets from Belgian studies to assess the applicability of the …
Validity of the TGI-SR+ in Francophone populations
The loss of a significant person can lead to a broad spectrum of responses. While most individuals gradually recover within a year, a minority develop Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD). The Traumatic Grief Inventory Self-Report Plus (TGI-SR+) was recently developed to ensure that the original scale (TGI-SR) still accurately assesses PGD in line with the latest diagnostic standards of the DSM-5-TR and ICD-11. This study aimed to validate the TGI-SR+ …
Et après le décès d’un proche aidé
Que se passe-t-il pour les proches aidants après le décès de leur proche ? La brève synthèse de littérature réalisée indique que les proches aidants ayant pu accompagner la fin de vie de leur proche autant qu’ils le souhaitaient sont moins à risque de développer des processus de deuil compliqués. Cependant, ces processus sont, pour chaque personne endeuillée, fondamentalement personnels et changeants et nécessitent donc une approche compréhensive…
Les rites funéraires restreints impactent-ils les réactions de deuil en Belgique
Le bouleversement des conditions de fin de vie et de mort, notamment des rites funéraires, a fait émerger de nombreuses préoccupations concernant une potentielle augmentation des complications de deuil. Une étude est actuellement menée auprès de 472 personnes endeuillées en situation restrictive des rites funéraires en Belgique. À la lumière des résultats préliminaires, les chercheurs répondent à ces préoccupations et discutent du lien fondamenta…
Pratiques rituelles numériques en temps de pandémie
La Covid-19 a entraîné des mesures sociosanitaires inédites, notamment des restrictions majeures aux rituels funéraires. Les technologies numériques ont constitué une façon de ritualiser les décès. À partir d’une étude longitudinale auprès de 955 personnes francophones canadiennes endeuillées d’un proche pendant la pandémie, cet article propose de décrire les formes de rites numériques réalisées, leur appréciation et leurs effets sur l’expérience…
Sociographie des ritualités funéraires en temps de pandémie
COVID-19 has led to unprecedented health and social measures in several countries, including major restrictions on funeral rituals. These restrictions concerned pre-mortem, peri-mortem and post-mortem rites. Based on a longitudinal study of 955 French-speaking Canadians bereaved of a loved one during the pandemic, this article describes the reality of these impediments. Through an analysis of the quantitative and qualitative data collected, it is…
Are caregiving appraisal and relationship quality key mediators in informal caregiving burnout? A structural equation modelling study in Belgium and France
Informal caregivers are key players in maintaining chronically ill patients at home but often experience negative consequences such as informal caregiver burnout. The processes by which determinants related to informal care and their personal and social resources affect the caregiver's risk of burnout remains little investigated. Recent theoretical works have suggested that two mediators could play an important role in understanding how these ris…
Dual Process Model of Coping With Bereavement in the Test of the Subjective Experiences of Bereaved Spouses
The Dual Process Model of Coping With Bereavement (DPM) was developed to better understand the dynamic coping processes adopted by bereaved people. In the present study, we investigated the daily subjective experiences of widowed people and examined whether they recognized themselves in the model. Thirteen out of the 16 interviewed widowed persons reported that their bereavement experience basically fitted the model. However, they also identified…
Daily life stressors and coping strategies during widowhood
The present study examined the frequency and types of bereavement-related stressors and coping strategies that 40 widowed people encountered and reported in a diary over the course of 1 week. The results indicated that, after 1 year of bereavement, (a) the most frequent stressors were oriented to the loss of the spouse, (b) specific coping strategies were used and found effective to deal with specific types of stressors
Why Do Bereaved Partners Experience Interfering Rumination
Recurring rumination is strongly associated with grief reactions severity. The authors investigated whether deficits in cognitive inhibition were related to such a dysfunctional process. Inhibition was examined among 61 low- or high-ruminating bereaved partners in a negative affective priming task with grief-related negative and positive words. Results revealed impaired inhibition for grief-related information in comparison with negative and posi…
Children Following the Ghislenghien Gas Explosion
Attachment and Severity of Grief
According to the Dual Process Model of coping with bereavement (DPM; Stroebe & Schut, 1999), adjustment to bereavement involves a flexible oscillation between two types of coping strategies: loss-oriented (LO) and restoration-oriented (RO). This model postulates that extremely anxious or avoidant attachment disturbs the oscillation process by focusing more on one type of strategy, either LO or RO. The present study examined this assumption. We re…
Does Social Support Help in Bereavement?
A review of studies on the role of social support as a moderator of bereavement out-come indicates that there is limited evidence for the widely held assumption that social support buffers the bereaved against the impact of the loss experience and/or facilitates recovery. A test of the buffering/recovery hypothesis is reported, which is based on data from the Changing Lives of Older Couples (CLOC) study, a prospective study of 1,532 married indiv…
Predicting Cognitive and Social Consequences of Emotional Episodes
Social Sharing of Emotion
Rimé et al. (1992) showed that most emotional experiences are shared with others shortly after they occurred. They proposed that social sharing represents an integral part of emotional experiences. The present chapter examines the generalizability of the phenomenon across various research procedures that overcome the limits of previous studies. Existing findings are extended to children and older populations, and individual and cultural differenc…
