Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare three types of support programs for parents who have lost a child. The study will see how these support programs affect participants' grief and depression symptoms. The three support programs are called Meaning-Centered Grief Therapy, Supportive Counseling, and Enhanced Usual Care.
Primary Outcome
The Prolonged Grief-13-Revised (PG-13-R) is a 13-item self-report scale evaluating the proposed symptoms of prolonged grief disorder. The PG-13-R assesses the severity of 10 grief-related symptoms using a 5-point Likert-type scale. Additional items evaluate the experience of a significant loss, symptom duration, and functional impairment. The PG-13-R yields a score between 10 and 50, where a higher score indicates that a person experiences higher levels of prolonged grief.
