N2  - Although there is a prototype narrative for complicated grief (CG), there are neither divergent nor convergent validity studies of its clinical value. We evaluated the CG prototype narrative using a sociodemographic questionnaire and the Clinical Interview for Complicated Grief Diagnosis. We first conducted a convergent validation analysis followed by a divergent validation analysis. <br><br>RESULTS showed that participants with CG identified significantly more with the complicated grief prototype narrative than participants without CG.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
