Grief experiences of surviving family members
(2024-07) Ronquillo, Araceli Archog
This study sought to identify the level of grief of surviving family members in Mountain Province and the differences between these grief levels in terms of demographic variables such as family rules, gender, cause of death, and ethnic group. Further, the present study aimed to identify the coping strategies employed by the participants. This research employed a mixed-method approach to identify the level of grief and to describe the coping mechanism of the participant. This design combines the collection of both quantitative and qualitative data to provide a comprehensive understanding of this relationship, with equal emphasis on both types. In the quantitative phase, the researcher utilized mean to identify the level of grief in a standardized psychological instrument which is the grief experience questionnaire. further, to identify the differences between categorical variables, an independent samples t-test was employed. in addition, a one-way analysis of variance was used to assess the difference in grief among ethnic groups. in the qualitative phase, the six steps of Braun and Clark(2006) identify the emerging themes on the present study.
