Society and culture have created scripts (i.e., social norms) that dictate the ways in which we are to grieve. These scripts also prescribe the unique ways in which men and women are expected to respond to grief. Specifically, men’s grief scripts suggest that men will resolve to grieve in solitude as a demonstration of their self-reliance. Men may also have muted emotional response and expressed emotions are typically in the form of anger or guilt (Martin & Doka, 2011). Comparatively, women’s grief scripts suggest that women are more emotive and seek support from others to help cope with loss (Martin & Doka, 2011).

"And the way that you make me and my friends feel, the way you make my black friends feel, is empowering. And you make them stand up for themselves. And I love you. I always have and I always will. Grammys, I appreciate it. The academy, I love you”- Adele, 2017.

Grief is a multi-faceted response to loss. Although primarily focused on the emotional reaction to loss, it also carries a physical, cognitive, behavioral, social, and philosophical connotation. Doctor Elisabeth Kübler-Ross introduced the idea of the stages of grief in her 1969 book, On Death and Dying. Although it has received much criticism since then, the Kübler-Ross model remains to be the most widely accepted model of grief today. However, as most psychological research conducted in the 20th century was based on people living in the North America and Western Europe, the Kübler-Ross model could be culturally biased. In the Laws of Absence, Ahmed El-Madini introduces the readers to grief and mourning in the Islamic culture. Through this

The program will be based on the ATTEND model and Wolfelt’s 10 touchstones. Furthermore, this study will test the efficacy of this program in reducing the distressing symptoms associated with the loss of a child. This study will therefore address the following research questions: (1) Will the program be effective in treating symptoms commonly associated with grief?; (2) Will the grief-related symptoms remain decreased at the 6-month follow-up as compared to the pre-intervention?; (3) Will the gender of the participant impact the efficacy of the group in reducing grief-related symptoms? The following are the corresponding hypotheses: (1) participant’s level of grief-related symptoms will significantly decrease after the group, as evidence by a decrease in the scores on the IES-R and HSCL-25; (2) it is expected that the 6-month follow-up scores will not be significantly different than post-intervention scores, and will be significantly lower than pre-intervention scores; (3) there is no hypothesis given regarding gender differences, but it is a purpose of this study to explore the efficacy of this program in relation to gender

The process model of coping with bereavement identified two types of stressors related to bereavement: “loss-oriented stressors and restoration-oriented stressors. Loss-oriented stressors are essentially those that relate directly to the death and the feelings associated with it. These types of stressors include ruminating on the emotions associated with the deceased, concentrating on how life had been prior to the loss, and focusing on the actual circumstances surrounding the death. Restoration-oriented

Grief and loss are one of the most universal human experiences, though painful, and understandably causes distress. However, approximately 15 % experience a more problematic grieving process with elevated symptoms of depression and/or posttraumatic stress symptoms (Bonanno and Kaltman, 1999).There is no well-established model of the timeline for resolution of grief and the variance of its expression is wide. Many persons cope with the emotional pain of bereavement without any formal intervention. However, individuals who have experienced traumatic bereavement, such as deaths that are sudden, violent, or due to human actions (Green 2000), may face particular challenges. Researchers have tried to define a model for the treatment of traumatic bereavement that fully supports not only the client, but also those working with the clients around their trauma

After interviewing the social workers Hope and Hodge (2006) found that they had observed similar patterns regarding the factors that affect the adjustment of children who lost a parent to death. Boys tend to show externalizing behaviors whereas girls tend to show internalizing behaviors due to the lost of a parent. They found that the cognitive level rather than the age of the child affects their adjustment more. Therefore younger children and preadolescents seem to have more difficulty adjusting to the death of a parent than adolescents. The results did not support earlier findings that sudden death present more difficulty adjusting than expected death. Most of the participants reported that sudden and expected death is equally traumatic to children. The participants also said that the adjustment of the caretaker is important for a positive adjustment for the children. The caretaker must be able to grieve while supporting the child’s need to grieve. This study shows that children of different ages and genders react different to the death of a parent.

Case Study 2 Derrick Wright Liberty University Case Study 2 What makes up Marilyn’s Grief History? Grief refers to an acceptable reaction of an individual when something or a loved one is taken away from the individual. It is the emotive pain that an individual feels when a loved one or something is taken away (Webb, 2011). The weightier the loss, the more excruciating the pain becomes. There is no right way to cope with the loss of a loved one.

Death and dying is a natural and unavoidable process that all living creatures will experience at some point in life, whether it is one’s own person death or the death of a close friend or family member. Along with the experience of death comes the process of grieving which is the dealing and coping with the loss of the loved one. Any living thing can grieve and relate to a loss, even children (Shortle, Young, & Williams, 1993). “Childhood grief and mourning of family and friends may have immediate and long-lasting consequences including depression, anxiety, social withdrawal, behavioral disturbances, and school underachievement” (Kaufman & Kaufman, 2006, p. 61). American children today grow up in cultures that attempt to avoid grief and

Loss of a significant other, especially a spouse, is considered one of life’s most stressful events. While it may be difficult, bereavement is an event that all people experience at some point in their lives. The time frame in which the loss occurs and how the individual reacts to it has been the subject of many research studies. Researchers have investigated if people grieve differently because of biological reasons or do their personality traits dictate how the loss is mourned. I will explore the biological impact of grief and the personality aspects in grieving.

The Emotional Impact of Death and Grief Research on Researchers Research exploring the emotional nature of communicating about death and grief, especially research on using the Internet to communicate about death and grief, has primarily focused on the emotions of the participants, with the researcher's emotional experiences being bracketed (Dunn, 1991).

The purpose of this longitudinal study will be to ascertain the effects of litigation on the grieving process. We will select 15 recently widowed participants from random law firms specializing in wrongful death cases and 15 from local funeral homes that have experienced natural loss. The study will be conducted using a correlation design. Participants will be followed and evaluated at certain time markers throughout the grieving process ranging from less than or equal to 1 year, 3 years or 5 years. They will be evaluated by an outside psychologist to monitor the grieving process and symptoms. All participants will be given a complete psychological assessment through a battery of tests to determine if there is a worsening of grief symptoms
