Few studies examine the relationship of grief with interrelated and broad concepts. In this study, the role of sense of coherence and emotion regulation difficulties in the relationship between early maladaptive schemas and grief was investigated with individuals (N = 254) who have lost a close person in the last 5 years. Mediation and moderated mediation analyses revealed that individuals with early maladaptive schemas may experience more complicated grief symptoms through the effect of early maladaptive schemas. For individuals with self-sacrifice schema, difficulties in the grief process were regulated by moderate to high levels of sense of coherence.
