This longitudinal study examined the mental health impact of COVID-19 restrictions on individuals bereaved during the pandemic, focusing on the mediating role of grief-specific rumination. A total of 141 adults who lost a significant person during the COVID-19 pandemic completed questionnaires at two time points, assessing perceived restrictions, psychological impact, trauma, anxiety, depression, prolonged grief, and rumination. Results showed th…
“I could not give him the funeral he deserved”
Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, measures were enforced that constrained people's ability to engage in conventional funeral and mourning rituals, which in general serve as vital mechanisms for coping with the experience of loss. This study aimed to investigate how these limitations affected early grief symptoms and the influence of alternative mourning rituals (paying tribute on social media, lighting candles in memory of the deceased, and using objec…
Does Meaning-Making Mediate Covid-19 Restrictions’ Impact on Grief and Psychological Symptoms
The COVID-19 pandemic imposed substantial restrictions on funeral ceremonies, profoundly affecting grief experiences. This study investigated the mediating role of meaning-making in the relationship between these restrictions and prolonged grief disorder (PGD) symptoms, anxiety, depression, and trauma. A longitudinal study involving 141 bereaved individuals was conducted, with assessments at two time points: 3-6 months (T1) and 9-12 months (T2) p…
Validation of the Portuguese version of the Integration of Stressful Life Experiences Scale (Isles) in a sample of bereaved individuals
The Integration of Stressful Life Experiences Scale (ISLES) evaluates the ability to integrate stressful experiences into one's meaning system. The present study developed and validated a version of this scale for a bereaved Portuguese-speaking population, utilizing a sample of 242 adults who had lost a significant other to diverse causes of death. The sample was predominantly female, educated, married, or in consensual unions, and actively emplo…
Utrecht grief rumination scale (UGRS)
Grief rumination is characterized by recurring, repetitive, self-focused thoughts about the causes and consequences of loss and loss-related emotions. This cognitive process is a transdiagnostic risk factor for mental disorders, such as prolonged grief. The aim of this study was to analyze the psychometric properties of the Portuguese version of the Utrecht Grief Rumination Scale (UGRS). The sample consists of 242 bereaved adult participants with…
Caregiving and bereavement in palliative care
Caregiving and bereavement outcomes are strongly influenced by socio-cultural context. Past research has found higher levels of caregiver burden and psychological morbidity in Portuguese compared to Brazilian caregivers. This study compared Brazilian and Portuguese family caregivers in palliative care to identify differences in psychological morbidity and caregiver burden and their relationship with psychosocial factors such as sociodemographic v…

Good family functioning, which is characterized by open communication, expression of feelings and thoughts and cohesion among family members, facilitates adaptive adjustment to the loss. This study conducted a systematic review of the literature on family dynamics during the grieving process. A search was conduc…

Prolonged Grief in Palliative Family Caregivers
Caregivers are particularly vulnerable to experience intense levels of distress following the loss. The aim of this prospective pilot study is to determine the incidence of prolonged grief disorder symptoms among caregivers. A total of 73 bereaved families responded to the Prolonged Grief Disorder Evaluation Instrument (PG-13) at 6 and 12 months following their loss. The incidence of prolonged grief disorder at the first assessment was 28.8%, and…
