| Summary: | The study was conducted to investigate whether death attitude and attachment style would predict a specific stage based on Kubler-Ross' grieving process model. In this study, a total of 336 Filipino undergraduate students from Metro Manila were invited to participate in the study but two of them were removed because they did not meet the cutoff score for validation questions. A research questionnaire containing two different scales - (a) Death Attitude Profile-Revised (DAP-R) and (b) Relationship Scale Questionnaire (RSQ) - and a demographic sheet which contained qualitative questions were asked to be answered. Descriptive statistics, multiple regression, and correlation were used to analyze the data. the results of the data revealed that death attitude and attachment style does not statistically predict the grieving process of Filipino college students in Metro Manila. However, different patters emerged from the qualitative data that explained how the death attitude and attachment style affect their grieving process. This study also proved that there is a universal process that everyone experiences when grieving but there is no linear way of how they go through the stages. The data collected indicated that college students have a common way of processing a person's death. Some of the demographic characteristics were correlated to the grieving process: (1) Sex and death attitude (2) Age and year level, (3) Year level and initial stage in the grieving process (4) Initial stage of the grieving process and the current stage. |
