“…These results align with our study's findings. Additionally, an examination of decisions by the Supreme Court of Appeals, the highest authority of the Turkish judicial courts, in 2021 revealed that physicians were the most sued group in 93 case files, with the majority being surgical branch physicians (56.7%), and approximately 20% of expert reports found physicians at fault due to lack of attention and care (8). It is thought that the increase in malpractice claims and lawsuits day by day causes the physicians to experience an increased fear of malpractice.…”

“…Job dissatisfaction, on the other hand, leads to institutional and individual problems such as decreased productivity and performance of physicians, job changes and quitting, unhappiness, restlessness, dissatisfaction, as well as mental and physical problems. Consequently, it negatively affects health service delivery (5,8). When malpractice lawsuits are examined, it is observed that emergency physicians are one of the first three branches (the others are gynecology and general surgery) against which malpractice lawsuits are filed (9).…”

Background: The number of physicians sued for malpractice is increasing, and this situation causes a fear of malpractice in physicians. The aim of this study is to determine the malpractice fear and the level of job satisfaction among emergency physicians and to examine the relationship between these factors. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional study has been conducted with emergency physicians at four different training and research hospitals in Ankara, Türkiye. Malpractice fear and job satisfaction have been evaluated with Malpractice Fear Scale (MFS) and Job Satisfaction Scale (JSS). Questionnaire method was used in the study. Results: The research has been completed with 143 physicians [mean age: 33.10±7.0 years, age range: 24-51 years, male: 107 (74.8%)]. It was found that 19.5% of the participants were reported for malpractice, 11.8% were sued, and no one was penalized. It has been determined that the participants scored 3.6±0.9 points on the MFS and 2.4±0.7 points on the JSS in 1-5 point range. A negative, moderate, and statistically significant correlation has been found between the MFS and the JSS (r= -0.551; p<0.01). Conclusion: In our study, it has been found that emergency physicians have a high level of malpractice fear and a low level of job satisfaction. There is no statistically significant difference in the level of malpractice fear and job satisfaction according to the sociodemographic characteristics of the participants. Increased fear of malpractice decreases the job satisfaction.

“…On the other hand, psychoanalytic theory suggests that a conflicted relationship before death is also linked to loss-related psychopathology, presumably because it complicates resolving attachment issues with the deceased and completing the decathexis (i.e., emotional withdrawal of one's attachment to the deceased; Freud, 1917;Parkes, 1991;Worden, 2015). Empirical studies confirmed that predeath closeness to and conflict with the deceased was positively associated with postdeath pathological grief, depressive symptoms, and psychological distress (Coelho et al, 2022;Harrison et al, 2022;Keser et al, 2022;Lee et al, 2022;Sekowski & Prigerson, 2022;Smigelsky et al, 2020;Tang et al, 2021). When taking closeness and conflict into consideration simultaneously, however, the two dimensions seem to contribute differently to psychopathological symptoms.…”

“…When taking closeness and conflict into consideration simultaneously, however, the two dimensions seem to contribute differently to psychopathological symptoms. While some reported that closeness and conflict together predicted prolonged grief symptoms (Keser et al, 2022), others found that closeness rather than conflict was related to prolonged grief (Coelho et al, 2022; Tang et al, 2021).…”

Objective: Network analyses showed that the posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptom structures may vary across traumatic events and types of survivors. However, the structure of PTSD symptoms in COVID-19 bereavement remains unknown. This study aimed to depict the structure of the PTSD symptom network and illuminate how the quality of the predeath relationship between the bereaved and the deceased links to the PTSD symptom network. Method: Using self-reported data from 408 COVID-19 bereaved adults (225 male and 183 female) collected within 9-month postbereavement, we constructed two graphical lasso networks of PTSD symptoms. Results: Symptoms with the highest centrality were exaggerated startle, negative emotional states, and reckless/self-destructive behavior, with exaggerated startle having relatively low predictability. The strongest connections were found between exaggerated starkness and detachment, and between psychological cue response and thoughts of avoidance. Moreover, closeness to and conflict with the deceased were linked to the PTSD symptom network through nightmares and physiological cue reactivity, respectively. Conclusions: This study extends our understanding of what PTSD is for people who are bereaved due to the COVID-19 pandemic by unveiling the structure of the PTSD symptom network. It also helps to distinguish the symptom-level links between quality of relationship with deceased and PTSD among the bereaved. Clinical Impact StatementFacing bereavement-related posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), alternation in arousal and reactivity, as well as cognition and mood, may need special attention. In the case of COVID-19, it may be helpful to focus on the "exaggerated starkness-detachment" and "psychological cue reactivity-thoughts of avoidance" symptom links. Evaluating the nature of the relationship between the bereaved and the deceased may also bring insights in improving PTSD symptoms.
