Abstract:
Complicated Grief (CG) has been identified as a potential consequence of bereavement that is associated with unique and debilitating outcomes. This thesis investigated autobiographical memory in CG. This program of research focused on the specificity and content of autobiographical memories in the context of CG. Study 1 investigated memory retrieval specificity using a cue word paradigm. Bereaved individuals with CG displayed an overgeneral retrieval style (OGM) compared to bereaved individuals without CG. Study 2 found that CG participants were also less specific in imagining future events in response to positive cues. Further, there was a significant independent relationship between memory retrieval specificity and the specificity of future imaginings. Study 3 investigated the relationship between overgeneral memory and social problem solving. CG participants performed more poorly on this task; however, there was no independent relationship with memory retrieval style. Study 4 investigated the impact of treatment on OGM. Results indicated that as symptoms of CG reduced following treatment, individuals retrieved more specific memories to positive cues. Studies 5-7 examined proposed relationships between self construct and autobiographical remembering in CG, as outlined in Conway and Pleydell-Pearce??s (2000) self memory system model. In Study 5, individuals with CG were more likely than bereaved controls to view their self-identity as being related to the deceased. Study 6 investigated the relationship between self-discrepancy, personal goals and memory content. CG individuals were more likely to recall loss-related memories, and there was a relationship between personal goals and memory content. Study 7 extended examination of these factors to future-related thinking. Finally, the program recognised the importance of investigating the impact of the cognitive strategies that individuals may adopt to manage painful memories. Using an experimental Stroop procedure as a measure of thought accessibility, Study 8 investigated thought suppression in CG. The results suggested that CG individuals experienced greater interference from death-related cues. In summary, these studies highlighted some of the key memory processes that may be involved in the maintenance, and potentially the resolution, of CG.

Abstract:
This research by project is asking whether the affect of embodied materiality can be materialised from complicated grief, in an investigation into the relationship between the affect of grief and the creative, embodied encounters with paper materials. In some types of traumatic loss, complicated grief can subsume the bereaved in a way like no other. Mourning can be a very difficult process. The research integrates creative practice, working with fibre-based materials, with the scholarly and cultural exploration of the literature and theory of mourning as a specific psychological state of mind. It is an exploration of the experience of mourning a complicated grief, through the sustained process of an embodied encounter with the materiality of making paper. Paper becomes the metaphor to discuss research questions that connect the maternal with affect in maternal grief, that paper can be the Symbolic and the body that inputs Cartesian culture is feminised using affect of the embodied encounter with materials. This research is not into art therapy, nor into art as illustrative of psychology. I use a hybrid approach to methodology, involving auto-ethnography and subjective experience as a medium through which to reflect on the relationship between materiality and affect. The substrate uses play; judgment is suspended, whilst the substrate is being handmade to create individual materiality. Culture and social theory, which enabled the methods of auto-ethnography and creative practice research to emerge, is the paradigm of postmodern and post positivist accounts of new relations between ‘subjectivity’ and ‘objectivity’. Moving forward from Glaser and Strauss’s thinking on grounded theory, display, together with reflective practice, is compatible with the emergence of feminist thinking on the significance of subjectivity and affect. The submission comprises a written dissertation, which reflects on the six years of creative practice, making new sense of the conventional silence surrounding complex mourning. The practice itself, connotes affect through the materialities of paper.

Full text
Abstract:

Through hermeneutic and heuristic research this thesis looks at melancholia or complicated grief with the contributing factor of identity questioning. From a depth psychological perspective, normal grief is differentiated from melancholia or complicated grief, which involves the unconscious. This exploration employs the theory of Allan Hugh Cole Jr., whose work on melancholia draws on that of Donald Capps, Erik Erikson, and Sigmund Freud. A disposition to melancholia, particularly in men, comes from the first abandonment by a primary parent, resulting in identity loss and resistance to resolution of grief. Factors such as trauma, sexual orientation, religion, or marginalized race can have exacerbating effect on melancholia and were found to have treatment implications. Ritual, art, play, humor, and dreams can be identity-conferring and restorative resources. The author proposes that melancholia with identity issues should be understood as a psychological problem that is distinct from, although it can prolong and complicate, grief.

Abstract:
Persistent intense yearning for the deceased is a core clinical feature of complicated grief (CG) that distinguishes it from other mental disorders that develop following loss. The Yearning in Situations of Loss Scale (YSL) is a recently developed assessment of yearning. To assess the psychometric properties of the YSL in those with CG, we administered the YSL, Inventory of Complicated Grief, and Quick Inventory of Depression Symptomatology to 303 treatment-seeking bereaved adults with CG. Our results suggest the YSL is a reliable assessment with acceptable convergent and discriminant validity as a measure of yearning in those with CG.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: Perinatal grief, which affects parents whose babies die during pregnancy or within a year after birth, has been shown to lead to severe morbidity and, in some cases, mortality. Despite the assertion that all these parents are susceptible to developing complicated grief because of the nature of their loss, there has been little evidence to support this. However, some variables which may predict the likelihood of these bereaved mothers having unremitting, intense grief have previously been identified, including: maternal age, education, marital status, occupational status, other losses and the presence of living children. Objective: The present studies assessed perinatal grief and the impact of these variables on the risk of developing complicated grief using self-reported data in two separate samples of perinatally bereaved mothers (N = 121) and (N = 146) up to five years after their loss. In Study 2 other psychopathological symptoms, including: depression, anxiety, stress and post-traumatic stress were also assessed. Results: Contrary to expectations, findings indicated that the proportion of these mothers who experienced complicated grief, 12.5% in Study 1 and 18% in Study 2, was similar to other populations of grievers. In both studies those variables that had been suggested as indicative of higher risk for developing psychopathology were not supported except for the absence/presence of other children. Conclusion: Perinatally bereaved mothers report clinically significant symptoms of complicated grief as well as other psychopathology such as depression, anxiety, stress and post-traumatic stress at levels similar to other populations of grievers. The symptomology of these mothers should be routinely monitored to assess need for referral for treatment when indicated. Limitations, such as the convenience samples of participants and strengths, such as, quantitative design of the study, are addressed and implications are outlined.

Abstract:
Grief is a syndrome of cognitions, emotions, and behaviors that commonly arise together following the death of a loved one. It includes intense pangs of emotional pain, yearning for the deceased, emotional numbness, subjective difficulty imagining the future without the deceased, and preoccupation with thoughts related to the death and the deceased. In the initial months following loss, the majority of bereaved adults will experience some or even many elements of this syndrome. For most, the frequency and severity of these elements diminishes over time. However, for some, grief persists for years after the loss; a condition known as complicated grief (CG). These distinct grief trajectories raise a critically important question for grief research: why does grief persist in some individuals, but not others? In this dissertation, I aimed to take an initial step toward answering this question. I first review recent advances in our understanding of the nature of CG and discuss the implications of these advances for research examining the etiology of CG. Most notably, I review how vulnerability factors that render bereaved adults susceptible to experiencing specific elements of the CG syndrome may contribute to the development or maintenance of CG. I then present three studies in which I examined cognitive impairments that may act as vulnerability factors for the core cognitive elements of CG and, thereby, may contribute to the broader CG syndrome. In Paper 1, I examined the ability to resist distracter information and the ability to resist proactive interference; two types of cognitive inhibition that, if impaired, may render bereaved adults vulnerable to experiencing intrusive grief-related cognitions and, thus, the broader CG syndrome. Contrary to my hypotheses, I found no evidence that bereaved adults with CG exhibit deficits in either type of cognitive inhibition for either emotional or non-emotional information relative to a bereaved comparison group without CG. In Paper 2, I examined another type of cognitive control: the ability to shift between mental representations. Contrary to my hypotheses, bereaved adults with CG did not exhibit deficits in cognitive set shifting for either emotional or non-emotional information. In Paper 3, I examined the ability to engage in episodic simulation of novel future events. Consistent with my hypotheses, bereaved adults with CG produced event simulations with fewer episodic details, less perceptual richness, less emotion/thought content, and less episodic richness than did the bereaved comparison group. Together, these studies provide a small step toward identifying cognitive vulnerabilities that may contribute to the development or maintenance of CG. Papers 1 and 2 suggest that general deficits in cognitive control are unlikely to feature prominently in the etiology of CG. Accordingly, in future studies, it will be important for researchers to examine alternative factors that may contribute to the preoccupying grief-related cognitions observed in CG, including cognitive control for more specific types of information than were assessed in this study (e.g., attachment- or grief-related information) and higher-order cognitive variables such as perceived explicability of the loss. Paper 3 providers further evidence that prospection is impaired in bereaved adults with CG and identifies impaired constructive episodic simulation of novel future events as a potential cognitive vulnerability that may contribute to the etiology of the broader CG syndrome.

Abstract:
The diagnosis of Complicated Grief (CG) is being proposed for inclusion in DSMâ 5. As such, it has been the focus of several studies purporting to build evidence of its validity and its conceptual and statistical distinction from Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and depression (Bonanno et al., 2007; Golden & Dalgleish, 2010; Prigerson et al., 1995b). However, previous research has focused predominantly on bereavement caused by non-violent means (e.g., prolonged terminal illness). This study attempts to explore the nature of CG among a sample of students who survived a mass shooting. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analytic procedures were used to examine and confirm the factor structure of CG as reported in previous studies (e.g., Boelen & van den Bout, 2005; Dillen, Fontaine, & Verhofstadt-Denève, 2008). A refined CG scale was then used as a criterion to demonstrate how different types of traumatic exposure contribute to symptoms of CG and/or posttraumatic stress (PTS). It was hypothesized that exposure items related to bereavement would be more related to CG than to PTS, whereas direct exposure to the shootings would be more closely related to PTS than to CG. Results of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses supported CG as a unitary construct distinct from PTS and from anxiety/depression. Logistic regression results demonstrated that bereavement status was significantly predicted by CG but not PTS: Participants who scored 1 standard deviation above the mean on the CG scale were 14.64 times more likely to have been bereaved than were those who scored at the mean. SEM analyses were used to provide an additional test of this hypothesis. The final model had acceptable fit as assessed by RMSEA = .046, CI = .043â .049, SRMR = .048, and CFI = .990; however, the Satorra-Bentler Scaled Ï 2 = 1507.82, df = 589, p < .001, did not support the model. Overall, results of SEM suggested that interpersonal loss (i.e., whether a friend was killed, injured, or escaped from the shootings) predicted CG but not PTS, whereas perceived threat predicted both CG and PTS.
