A 1.5-year follow-up of an Internet-based intervention for complicated grief . Only recently have psychotherapeutic interventions for complicated grief been developed and evaluated in randomized controlled trials . These trials have reported significant reductions in complicated grief and related symptoms in response to treatment relative to control groups . However , little is known about the long-term outcomes of these treatments . The authors present an evaluation of a 1.5-year follow-up of an Internet-based cognitive-behavioral intervention for complicated grief . Treatment group patients ( n = 22 ) were administered various assessments of complicated grief indicators , including the Impact of Event Scale , the anxiety and depression subscales of the Brief Symptom Inventory , and the SF-12 . Results indicate that the reduction in symptoms of complicated grief observed at posttreatment was maintained at 1.5-year follow-up .
