  1. Legend: Results of the multiple hierarchical regression with forced blockwise entry. Criterion: complicated grief symptoms (ICG Score). Demographic characteristics and time since loss entered in the first block, depressive and anxiety symptoms in the second, brooding and reflection in the third, and grief-related rumination (UGRS Score) in the last block. ** p < .01, *** p < .001. Only participants were included whose loss occurred more than six months ago. Gender was dummy-coded; Time since loss was dummy-coded with 0 indicating a loss 12 to 36 months ago and 1 indicating a loss 6 to 12 months ago
