Description:

<p>Although most mourners are resilient, a significant minority experience a profoundly disruptive course of</p><p>bereavement that substantially impairs their ability to function in crucial life contexts. This presentation</p><p>reports the development of a brief and efficient 5-item screening instrument, the Grief Impairment Scale or</p><p>GIS, which assesses the impact of loss on cognitive, behavioral, health, social role and interpersonal</p><p>domains. Results document the coherent factor structure, internal reliability, construct and discriminant</p><p>validity, sensitivity and specificity of the GIS in evaluating clinically significant functional impairment</p><p>associated with grief and support its use in health and mental health settings for both epidemiological</p><p>research and treatment planning.</p><p><br></p><p id="isPasted">1.5 hour CE program</p><p>Course materials can be accessed below.
