Abstract
The present study used I. Ajzen's (1991) Theory of Planned Behavior (TBP) to explore college students' beliefs about listening supportively to a grieving friend. Responses to open-ended questions suggested that students (N = 23) perceived both benefits and risks, connected with listening supportively, for the grieving friend and for themselves. In addition, students perceived “requirements” associated with listening supportively to a grieving friend such as the need for time, a quiet place to talk, and previous experience with grief.
