To evaluate how the mode of death affect health and emotional reaction.
We analyzed 178 responses to a questionnaire from the bereaved. The respondents were divided into 4 groups: bereaved by suicide, accident, acute death (less than a day from onset), and illness-related death (less than a year from onset).
The suicide, accident and acute death groups indicated averages higher than or as high as the clinical threshold on both general health scale and depression scale. Differences among groups appeared on all but the subscales of somatic symptoms and of anxiety & insomnia.
The cause-of-death factor has an effect on the bereavement reaction. The effect seemed more apparent on emotion than on physical health.
评估死亡方式如何影响健康和情绪反应。
我们分析了178份来自丧亲者的问卷回复。受访者被分为4组:因自杀、意外、急性死亡(发病后不到一天)和与疾病相关的死亡(发病后不到一年)而丧亲的人。
自杀、意外和急性死亡组在总体健康量表和抑郁量表上的平均分高于或高达临床阈值。除躯体症状以及焦虑与失眠子量表外,各小组之间在所有方面均存在差异。
死亡原因因素对丧亲反应有影响。这种影响在情绪方面似乎比在身体健康方面更明显。
