Abstract
Volume I is concerned with developing a psychological understanding of the psychological impacts and experiences of individuals’ affected by complex grief. It contains three chapters: a meta-ethnography, an empirical paper and a public dissemination document. The meta-ethnography critically reviews qualitative literature of couple’s experiences of a subsequent pregnancy and parenting following a pregnancy loss through miscarriage, stillbirth and/or neonatal death, and provides a higher-level interpretation of these findings. The empirical paper uses Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) to conduct an exploration of the lived experience of family members bereaved by heroin overdose. The findings were explored in relation to their applicability to existing models and theories of bereavement. The public dissemination document provides a brief summary using simple language of the first and second chapters, to be accessible to a wider audience.
