Abstract
The effects of cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression on personal growth in the bereaved are presented. After controlling for current psychotherapy involvement, time since loss, attachment insecurity, and grief severity, cognitive reappraisal was a positive predictor of personal growth and expressive suppression was a negative predictor of personal growth.
