  • When grief alters social self

    Wenli Qian, Jingjing Huang et al.ARTICLEDeath Studies2026Referências: 4

    Social disconnection is characterized by a tendency among bereaved individuals to assign negative meaning to others' behaviors, perceive themselves as changed in social interactions, and find comfort in withdrawal.

This study validated the Chinese version of Oxford Grief-Social Disconnection Scale (C-OG-SD) and examined its longitudinal predictive validity. A total of 428…

  • Validation of the new DSM‐5‐TR criteria for prolonged grief disorder and the PG‐13‐Revised ( PG‐13‐R ) scale
