TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - Towards a model of loss navigation in adolescence JO - Death studies A1 - Lytje, Martin SP - 291 EP - 302 VL - 41 IS - 5 N2 - Researchers today consider childhood bereavement one of the most traumatic experiences that can befall a child. Nevertheless, most models of bereavement currently limit themselves to dealing with adult grief and primarily explores the internal processes associated with recovery. Based on a study which conducted focus groups with 39 Danish adolescents (aged 9-17), this article presents The Model of Loss Navigation in Adolescence. Centered on the three factors: Being Different, Being in Control and Being in Grief, the model highlight the social conventions children have to navigate and how these influences both their day-to-day lives and their road to recovery.
