Search for New Meaning: Adolescent Bereavement after the Sudden Death of a Sibling
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Many adolescents experience the sudden death of a brother or sister, yet little is known about the bereavement process. The purpose of this study was to use a grounded theory approach to examine the bereavement process for adolescents who experienced the sudden death of a sibling. Interviews conducted with six adolescents, within seven years of their sibling's death, provided the major sources of data. The findings of this study indicate that the bereavement process is variable and encompasses five stages: (a) finding out, (b) avoiding realityr, (c) facing reality, (d) turning the corner, and (e) finding new meaning versus ending the search. In each of these stages the adolescent focuses on the basic psychological process of the ‘search for new meaning’. Findings from this study may give new insights into interventions for helping teens through this bereavement process that is grounded in scientific rationale and is age sensitive, addressing adolescents' unique experiences and concerns.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
