All completed the feeling of emptiness scale (FES). Information was also collected on sociodemographic characteristics and history of suicide attempts. First, the control sample scores were compared with those of the clinical sample. Later, the single attempt and reattempt groups (any amount greater than one attempt at baseline) were compared. Finally, the clinical sample was followed for 1 year and 3 months (through clinical records).

In this longitudinal study, we surveyed 181 adults who had lost first-degree relatives within 1 year at three intervals, each 6 months apart. The study utilized The Scale of Social Support in Bereavement (SSB), which distinguishes four domains of social support for the bereaved: living support, economic support, grief processing and emotion restoration. Additionally, The Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) was used to measure PTG. Random intercepts cross-lagged panel model analyses revealed that social support and PTG were positively correlated at each time point at the within-person level.

Additionally, PTG at Time 1 positively predicted the receipt of emotion restoration support at Time 2 at the within-person level.
