Extensive research has provided firm evidence upon which we
can base our understanding of bereavement and its psychiatric
consequences.
In this module we shall consider:
- the nature and neurophysiology of grief;
- the influence of bereavement on physical and mental
health;
- study findings on the course of grief and the factors
that determine good and bad outcomes;
- the major theoretical models that explain these
findings;
- the interventions that have made it possible to prevent
some psychiatric problems and treat others.
