这项研究调查了丧失亲人者对大流行病的反应与他们悲伤的严重程度和损害程度之间的关系。共有831名因COVID-19失去亲人的美国成年人对功能失调性悲伤和功能障碍的有效措施以及评估与大流行病相关的独特并发症（例如对医生的怨恨，社会孤立）的项目做出了回应。结合起来，环境风险因素占59%的方差在社会功能障碍和充分71%的方差在流行性悲伤，导致大流行性悲伤风险因素（PGRF）的库存的发展，它显示了一个统一的因素结构，高可靠性和强大的收敛效度。简要说明了对COVID-19丧失者进行心理筛查和干预的意义。
This study examined the relationship between reactions of the bereaved to conditions of the pandemic and severity of their grief and levels of impairment. A total of 831 American adults who lost a loved one to COVID-19 responded to validated measures of dysfunctional grief and functional impairment, as well as items assessing unique complications associated with the pandemic (e.g. resentment toward doctors, social isolation). In combination, circumstantial risk factors accounted for 59% of the variance in social impairment and fully 71% of the variance in pandemic grief, leading to the development of an inventory of Pandemic Grief Risk Factors (PGRF), which displayed a unified factor structure, high reliability and strong convergent validity. Implications for psychological screening and intervention for those bereaved by COVID-19 are briefly noted.
