Abstract

The connections between complicated grief and traumatic stress have previously been investigated; however, the learning effects resulting from previous losses and emotional clarity are still unclear. Understanding these effects may shed more light on the general hypotheses of emotional aging. We aimed to assess the moderating effects of emotional clarity and previous losses on bereavement outcomes. This study evaluated 190 participants with a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Inventory of Complicated Grief, the Impact of Event Scale–Revised, and the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale. The results confirm that previous losses change the relationship between complicated grief and trauma and that emotional clarity changes the association between previous losses and complicated grief.
