Technology-supported Interventions for Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD)
Sponsor: Universitat Jaume I
Summary
The main aim of this project is to test the efficacy of two formats of delivering an internet- based treatment(GROw) for Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD) in order to enhance treatment adherence: in a blended format (that combines self-applied treatment online with face-to face sessions with a therapist by videoconference: BF-GROw) and self-applied online format supported by Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMAs) and Ecological Momentary Interventions (EMIs) (iGROw), compared with a waiting list (WL) control group in a community sample of patients with the diagnosis of PGD. The general initial hypothesis is that both treatment conditions (blended format and self-applied format supported by EMAs and EMIs) will significantly produce an improvement in grief symptoms, compared to the WL control group.

Internet-based treatment (GROw) combined with face-to-face videoconferencing sessions with a therapist in BF-GROw group
The treatment that will be applied is an internet-based treatment (GROw) (Tur et al., 2021, 2022)combined with face-to-face videoconferencing sessions with a therapist (blended) . This protocol has 8 weekly modules and lasts between 8 and 12 weeks. The modules included are: 1) Welcome (starting the program), 2) Understanding reactions to loss, 3) Coping with loss, 4) Loss integration and restoration (first steps), 5) Deeping integration and restoration of loss, 6) Consolidating loss integration and restoration, 7) Self-care, guilt, and forgiveness in the grieving process, and 8) Evaluating progress and looking to the future. BF-GROw group will receive a treatment module every 10-12 days. This protocol is available online: (https://psicologiaytecnologia.labpsitec.es).
Internet-based treatment (GROw) supported by the App developed which contains the EMA and EMI tools in iGROw group.
