Objective: To give an overview of English and German speaking bereavement measurements for difficulties in the grieving process and complicated grief.
Method: Systematic literature review.
Results: 22 measures were identified. They are categorised into general, specialized and pre-death measurements. All scales proved to have predominantly good psychometric properties.
Discussion: Dozens of measures of grieving have been proposed internationally. Only 3 general and 3 specialized scales are available in German language.
Conclusion: Up to date no scale exists in German language to assess bereavement difficulties prior to death.
