الملخص EN

This study sought to explore prolonged grief and social withdrawal levels among a sample of female children of Syrian refugees residing in Mafraq-Jordan, some of whom lost their father because of his death during the war, and the effects of this loss on the prolonged grief and social withdrawal variables.

The study consisted of 152 girls who were categorized into two groups: The loss group (No.

= 80) and the control group (No.

= 72) who did not experience the loss.

All participants completed The Extended Grief Inventory (EGI), and its three sub-scales.

In addition, teachers of the participants rated them on the social withdrawal inventory.

The results indicated that levels of prolonged grief and social withdrawal were high and highly moderate respectively, in the study's two groups.

In addition, children in the loss group compared to the control group were significantly higher on prolonged grief and its three sub-scales, and on social withdrawal inventory.

Moreover, results of regression analysis showed that the first sub¬scale of EGI: Positive connection was the best variable predicting social withdrawal; and followed by the third sub-scale of EGI: Traumatic intrusion and avoidance, and both have contributed in explaining (34.7%) of the variance in participants' ratings on social withdrawal inventory.
