Psychometric Evaluation of the Traumatic Grief Inventory-Self Report Plus (TGI-SR+) in Chinese Bereaved People.

Objective: The Traumatic Grief Inventory-Self Report Plus (TGI-SR+) measures the most recent prolonged grief disorder (PGD) symptom sets defined in the 11 edition of the International Statistical of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-11) and the text revision of the fifth edition of the Diagnostical and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5-TR). However, the TGI-SR+ has not yet been translated and validated in Chinese. This study aims to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Chinese translation of the TGI-SR+.
