Moral injury appraisals and PTSD symptoms in treatment-seeking refugees: a latent profile analysis.

Refugees flee from countries due to war, violence, or persecution and are often exposed to potentially traumatic events (PTEs). Furthermore, they might encounter situations where they are compelled to act contrary to their moral codes or witness others acting morally wrong. Consequently, they are at risk to not only develop symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but also moral injury (MI).

Factors associated with posttraumatic stress severity and treatment response in a retrospective, naturalistic sample of homicidally bereaved children and young people.

Research on the mental health of homicidally bereaved children and young people is scarce. Despite the importance of timely referral of those at risk of developing severe mental health problems, few convincing risk factors have been identified. The effectiveness of current treatment models is unclear.

My grief app for prolonged grief in bereaved parents: a randomised waitlist-controlled trial.

A minority of bereaved adults experiences prolonged grief disorder, depression, and/or posttraumatic stress disorder, with heightened risks observed among bereaved parents. Cognitive-behavioural therapies, both face-to-face and online, have demonstrated efficacy in treating post-loss mental health problems. Mobile phone applications potentially offer an efficient and cost-effective way to deliver self-help to bereaved adults, yet controlled effectiveness studies are lacking.

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+.

Is pregnancy loss (that) disenfranchised? Evidence from a vignette study.

Perceiving that society disregards grief after pregnancy loss (disenfranchised grief) elevates bereaved parents' psychological burden. In this research, we aimed to compare the disenfranchisement of pregnancy loss with four other loss types considering the bereaved's gender. We collected data from Turkish participants (= 1,280) using a 5 (loss type) x 2 (gender) between-subjects design with randomly assigned vignettes.
