Paradox of Reality And The Presence Of Absence 

Hey Everyone !!! This study investigates the experience of loss and examining how individuals perceive the persistence of the deceased in memory, space, and time. The research will explore themes of grief, ambiguous loss, embodiment, and the longing between the living and the departed. The study aims to understand how people make-meaning of the presence made by the absence and whether existence extends beyond material death. All responses will remain anonymous, and the results will be solely used for academic purposes. Would really appreiacte you time and effort in doing my questionnaire will really help me out , wont take more than 5 minutes <3

Are you familiar with the term ambiguous loss ? *
Ambiguous loss is a state of uncertainty in which one struggles to fully process the absence of a lost one. This type of loss arises when closure remains out of reach, when a person is physically gone, yet their memory or bodily presence lingers, creating an unresolved emotional state. Ambiguous loss can also take the form of a physical presence without psychological presence ex: (Alzheimer’s and memory loss), or a physical absence with continued emotional presence ex: (such as in cases where a person is missing, presumed dead, or lost without confirmation). In both instances, emotional or physical connections are severed despite an ongoing sense of presence.
