ICG-D
Inventory of Complicated Grief - deutsch
Short abstract
The ICG-D was developed based on the original English version (Prigerson et al., 1995) to assess complicated grief. It consists of a total of 19 items. Reliability: The internal consistency of the items was α = .87. The retest reliability after 4 weeks was rtt = .69. Validity: To examine validity, the ICG-D was compared with the BDI and subscales of the SCL-90-R. The correlation with the BDI was rtt = .38. The correlation with the BDI was r = .38, with the depression subscale of the SCL-90-R r = .32, with the somatization subscale r = .25, and with the anxiety subscale r = .25. The correlation of the total score of the SCL-90-R with the ICG-D was r = .37.
