Abstract

BACKGROUND: Although evidence-based Prolonged Grief Disorder treatments (PGDT) exist, pretreatment characteristics associated with differential improvement remain unidentified. To identify clinical factors relevant to optimizing PGDT outcomes, we used unsupervised and supervised machine learning to study treatment effects from a double-blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial.
