The purpose of this study was to develop a receiving support scale by those in bereaved family groups, and to analyze the relevant factors. A survey was conducted with a self-evaluating questionnaire, which was distributed to 160 members in eight bereaved family groups listed in the Terminal Care journal. The exploratory factor analysis, in considering the maximum likelihood and promax rotation, revealed four underlying factors, which were labeled "Emotional Support", "Cognitive Support", "Informational Support", and "Professional Support". The result of the stepwise exploratory factor analysis revealed that the scale had 16 suitable items. In addition, based on ANOVA (analysis of variance) and multiple comparison, those receiving support, in bereaved family groups, were significantly different in age, relationships, cause of death, satisfaction with the bereavement group, reduction of grief, and daily activities. Possible reasons for these findings will be discussed.
