psicológico. Para conter o avanço do vírus, vários países adotaram medidas restritivas que
impactaram a maneira como as pessoas vivenciam seu processo de luto. O presente estudo
ancora-se no Modelo de Processamento Dual, e tem como objetivo identificar quais fatores de
risco estão associados a maior intensidade de resposta ao luto. Método: A pesquisa é um estudo
quantitativo transversal. A amostra contém 163 participantes (87.10% mulher e 12.90%
homem) que perderam alguém próximo durante o período pandémico. Recolheu-seinformações
sociodemográficas e relacionadas a perda e aplicou-se a PG-4. Fez-se umaregressão linear
hierárquica múltipla para determinar os fatores associados a intensidade de resposta ao luto.
Resultados: Resposta de luto mais intensas estavam associadas a menor apoiosocial, alteração
da situação financeira para pior, maior impacto psicológico das restrições em comunicar com o
familiar e o falecido ter recebido cuidados em fim de vida no hospital. Conclusão: Há fatores
que podem ser vistos com estressores orientados a perda e a restauraçãoe aspetos do contexto
pandémico que podem sobrecarregar o indivíduo.
Introduction: The Coronavirus is an infectious disease that has left tens of millions of deaths around the world, and which has had social, economic, emotional, and psychological consequences. To mitigate the spread of the virus, several countries have adopted restrictive measures, that impacted the way people experience their grieving process. The present study is anchored in the Dual Process Model and aims to identify risk factors associated with a greater intensity of grief response. Method: The research is a cross-sectional quantitative study. The sample contains 163 participants (87.10% female and 12.90% men) who lost a close one during the pandemic. Sociodemographic and loss-related information was collected, and the PG-4 was applied. A hierarchical multiple regression was performed to determine the factors associated with intensity of grief response. Results: More intense bereavement responses were associated with less social support, financial situation changing for worse, greater psychological impact of restrictions on communicating with the deceased, and the deceased having received end-of-life care in a hospital. Conclusion: There are factors that can be seen as loss and restoration oriented stressors and aspects of the pandemic context that can be seen as overload
