  • Toward the assessment of belief in stages of grief

    Open AccessKate A Avis, Paul A Boelen et al.ARTICLEDeath Studies2026

    Despite concerns that stage models of grief may harm bereaved people, the impact of belief in stages remains understudied. This is partly due to lack of a comprehensive measurement-instrument to assess belief in stages. Thus, the current study sought to develop such an instrument. Sixty-four items were generated by experts and subjected to exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. This culminated in the 19-item Belief in Stages of Grief Scale…

  • Do insecure attachment styles predict prolonged grief symptoms? Significant null findings

    Open AccessAntje Janshen, Paul A Boelen et al.ARTICLEDeath Studies2024Citada por: 1Referências: 2

    Insecure attachment is proposed to be a risk factor in the development and persistence of severe grief. Although prior research demonstrates positive cross-sectional and longitudinal correlations between attachment styles and prolonged grief symptoms, controlled longitudinal analyses yield fewer convincing results. Therefore, we sought to further clarify the concurrent and longitudinal associations between these constructs. A sample of 225 bereav…

  • My Memories of the Time We Had Together Are More Important

    Open AccessKate Woodthorpe, Hannah Rumble et al.ARTICLESociology2022Citada por: 2Referências: 26

    Funerals have long been of interest to social scientists. Previous sociological work has examined the relationship between individuality, belief and tradition within funeral services, founded on the assumption that public rituals have psycho-social benefit for organisers and attendees. With the introduction of direct cremation to the UK, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on funeral service attendance in 2020 and 2021, critique of this assum…

  • Bereavement in Times of Covid-19

    Open AccessMargaret S Stroebe, Henk SchutARTICLEOMEGA - Journal of Death and Dying2021

    A review of the literature on adaptation to bereavement during the COVID-19 pandemic was conducted to assess the current state of knowledge. Scopus, Web of Science and Google Scholar databases were searched for studies published during the first 6 months of the COVID-19 outbreak. 44 articles were included in the review. Narrative synthesis showed that knowledge was largely based on expert assessments of prior bereavement research and professional…

  • Funeral practices and grief

    John Birrell, J H W Birrell et al.ARTICLEBereavement Care2020

    Does restricting the ceremonial/ritual arrangements around a cremation to a minimum have a negative association with grief over time? This question has increasingly concerned professionals in the funeral industry as well as those in healthcare capacities working with bereaved persons. We examined the relationship between cremation arrangements and levels of grief. Bereaved people in the UK completed questionnaires 2 to 5 months post-loss and a ye…

  • Cremation and Grief

    Open AccessJohn Birrell, J H W Birrell et al.ARTICLEOMEGA - Journal of Death and Dying2020

    Funeral services are known to serve multiple functions for bereaved persons. There is also a common, intuitively reasonable assumption of positive associations between engaging in funeral activities and adjustment to bereavement. We examined whether restricting ceremonial cremation arrangements to a minimum has a negative association with grief over time. Bereaved persons in the United Kingdom completed questionnaires 2 to 5 months postloss and a…

  • Cautioning Health-Care Professionals

    Open AccessMargaret Stroebe, Margaret S Stroebe et al.ARTICLEOMEGA - Journal of Death and Dying2017

    Science and practice seem deeply stuck in the so-called stage theory of grief. Health-care professionals continue to “prescribe” stages. Basically, this perspective endorses the idea that bereaved people go through a set pattern of specific reactions over time following the death of a loved one. It has frequently been interpreted prescriptively, as a progression that bereaved persons must follow in order to adapt to loss. It is of paramount impor…

  • Overload

    Open AccessMargaret S Stroebe, Henk SchutARTICLEOMEGA - Journal of Death and Dying2016

    The Dual Process Model of Coping with Bereavement (DPM) was put forward as a framework to help understand reactions to the death of a loved person. Since its inception, there have been various developments and further specifications regarding the model’s parameters. A number of researchers have assessed the model’s contribution and put some of its parameters to empirical test. It has also been applied in clinical practice. Despite generally posit…

  • Family Matters in Bereavement

    Open AccessMargaret Stroebe, Margaret S Stroebe et al.ARTICLEPerspectives on Psychological…2015

    The death of a loved one can be heartbreaking for those left behind, and indeed, bereavement is associated not only with adverse health effects but also a higher risk of dying oneself. Not surprisingly, its consequences have been the subject of much psychological enquiry, with a major interest in shedding light on how one adapts, who is most at risk, and why. Often the focus is on the bereaved individual, yet people do not typically grieve in iso…

  • Telephone versus in-person intake assessment for bereavement intervention

    Catherine Newsom, Henk Schut et al.ARTICLEDeath Studies2015Referências: 2

    Standardized, evidence-based risk assessment is an important component in providing effective bereavement care. E-health intake assessments have been offered alongside or instead of in-person assessments, although evidence concerning the equivalence of assessment results is lacking. This article examines differences between a semistructured intake assessment for grief intervention conducted over the telephone (n = 330) and in-person (n = 115). Di…

  • The Economic Cost of Bereavement in Scotland

    Audrey Stephen, Audrey I Stephen et al.ARTICLEDeath Studies2014Citada por: 5Referências: 1

    Aspects of the socioeconomic costs of bereavement in Scotland were estimated using 3 sets of data. Spousal bereavement was associated with increased mortality and longer hospital stays, with additional annual cost of around £20 million. Cost of bereavement coded consultations in primary care was estimated at around £2.0 million annually. In addition, bereaved people were significantly less likely to be employed in the year of and 2 years after be…

  • Practitioners and researchers working together in an intervention efficacy study

    Cate Newsom, Stewart W Wilson et al.ARTICLEBereavement Care2011

    All too often it is assumed that the differing priorities, values and ethics of practitioners and researchers are irreconcilable. This article describes the long, sometimes difficult and ultimately fruitful process of setting up an evaluation of the efficacy of the bereavement support service offered by Cruse Bereavement Care Scotland (CBCS). CBCS invited researchers from Utrecht University's Centre for Bereavement Research and Intervention to wo…

  • Challenges in evaluating adult bereavement services

    Henk Schut, Margaret Stroebe et al.ARTICLEBereavement Care2011

    Evaluating the effectiveness of bereavement interventions presents major theoretical, ethical and practical challenges. Based on the extensive research experience of the authors, this article outlines some of the key considerations that must be addressed when seeking to demonstrate the effectiveness of an intervention. These include what methods to use, the recruitment of participants, what to measure to demonstrate effectiveness, adapting measur…

  • Continuing bonds in adjustment to bereavement

    Open AccessMargaret S Stroebe, Georgios Abakoumkin et al.ARTICLEPersonal Relationships2011

    There is debate whether continuing bonds with a deceased person help or hinder adaptation to bereavement. This longitudinal study examined causal relationships between continuing bonds and symptoms over time. Following attachment theory predictions, suddenness of separation was examined as a moderator. Data were obtained from 60 bereaved spouses at 3 points across the first 2 years of bereavement. Measures included expectedness of death, grief an…

  • Grief counselling efficacy

    Henk SchutARTICLEBereavement Care2010

    Henk Schut responds to Larson and Hoyt's challenge (see Bereavement Care 28 (3), winter 2009) to the prevailing pessimism about the effectiveness of grief counselling. Studies indeed show that the more formalised professional therapeutic interventions with those experiencing complicated grief reactions can be effective, but for those who have simply lost a loved one, the evidence suggests that counselling is unlikely to be effective unless the in…

  • The Dual Process Model of Coping with Bereavement

    Open AccessMargaret S Stroebe, Henk SchutARTICLEOMEGA - Journal of Death and Dying2010

    The Dual Process Model of Coping with Bereavement (DPM; Stroebe & Schut, 1999) is described in this article. The rationale is given as to why this model was deemed necessary and how it was designed to overcome limitations of earlier models of adaptive coping with loss. Although building on earlier theoretical formulations, it contrasts with other models along a number of dimensions which are outlined. In addition to describing the basic parameter…

  • Risk Factors for Bereavement Outcome

    Karolijne Van Der Houwen, Margaret S Stroebe et al.ARTICLEDeath Studies2010Citada por: 25Referências: 4

    Bereavement increases the risk of ill health, but only a minority of bereaved suffers lasting health impairment. Because only this group is likely to profit from bereavement intervention, early identification is important. Previous research is limited, because of cross sectional designs, small numbers of risk factors, and use of a single measure of bereavement outcome. Our longitudinal study avoids these pitfalls by examining the impact of a larg…

  • The Impact of Circumstances Surrounding the Death of a Child on Parents' Grief

    Leoniek Wijngaards-De Meij, Leoniek Wijngaards‐de Meij et al.ARTICLEDeath Studies2008Referências: 6

    A longitudinal study was conducted among bereaved parents to examine the relationship between the circumstances surrounding the death of their child and psychological adjustment. Two hundred nineteen couples participated at 6, 13, and 20 months post-loss. Examination was made of two categories of factors: those that were determined by the particular death circumstances (e.g., whether the parent was present at the death) versus those over which pa…
