Factors that contributed to unresolved grief among cancer-bereaved siblings. To calculate the estimated probability of unresolved grief in a sibling, go through the variables included in the Nomogram and mark the values which correspond to the individual's circumstances. Use the scale at the top to assign a number of points for each value (e.g., a sibling with five to seven years since loss is scored 50 points for this variable). Finally, sum up the points from all variables and use the two scales at the bottom to convert the total points to a predicted probability, for example, a sibling whose values score a total of 100 points has a 31% probability of unresolved grief.
