11 informants who were mourning relatives or friends who had died during the last five years were interviewed by a priest, who asked about their relationship to the deceased, their participation in funeral rituals and their experience of their own mourning process. The respondents endorsed the following scales: SCL-90 Depression subscale, Intrinsic, Extrinsic and Quest Scales, Doctrinal Orthodoxy Scale, Liberal Belief Scale, Moral Conservatism Index and Humanistic Mortality Scale. Each respondent was evaluated hermeneutically in a pastoral-clinical way, and the whole material was treated statistically. The extrinsic person uses his religion to attain comfort, security, and social acceptance, and it is not deeply integrated in his personality. The extrinsic religious orientation correlated positively with a prolonged mourning process and depression. It can be tentatively concluded that extensive participation in funeral rituals seems to prevent a prolonged mourning process and resulting depression.
11位在过去五年中失去亲人或朋友并仍处于哀悼中的受访者接受了一位牧师的访谈，牧师询问了他们与逝者的关系、他们参与葬礼仪式的情况以及他们自身哀悼过程的经历。受访者填写了以下量表：症状自评量表90项抑郁分量表、内在、外在和探索量表、教义正统量表、自由信念量表、道德保守主义指数和人文死亡量表。每位受访者都以牧养临床的方式进行了解释性评估，所有材料都进行了统计处理。外在型的人利用宗教来获得安慰、安全感和社会认可，并且宗教并未深入融入其人格。外在宗教取向与延长的哀悼过程和抑郁呈正相关。可以初步得出结论，广泛参与葬礼仪式似乎可以防止哀悼过程延长及由此导致的抑郁。
