Abstract
As COVID-19 continues to impact lives, it is important to examine the psychological effects that arise from grief. This study showed strong correlations between functional impairment from COVID-19 grief and neuroticism, depression, and generalized anxiety. This suggests there needs to be more mental health screenings for people experiencing COVID-19 grief.
