Wiki Version:
The Bereavement and Grief—Cultural Formulation Interview (BG-CFI) consists of 10 brief, person-centered, and open-ended questions to assess (1) cultural traditions associated with death, bereavement, and mourning, (2) cultural meaning of encounters with the deceased, and (3) help-seeking and coping. It was designed as a supplementary module to the DSM-5 Cultural Formulation Interview (CFI). The BG-CFI aims to validate diagnosis of grief disorders, support treatment negotiation, increase rapport between patient and clinician, facilitate sharing of emotionally sensitive information, enhance the patient’s ability to find meaningful ways of dealing with the loss, and help patient and therapist to integrate meaningful rituals in grief treatment.
