Descripción
In the context of the Colombian armed conflict, women have been the most affected, with the grief process being the most deficient due to the lack of psychosocial support. The objective of this study was to describe resilience and coping strategies in a sample of women victims of the armed conflict and their relationship with the stages of grief experienced. The methodology used was a quantitative, descriptive, non-experimental, ex post facto approach. Twenty women victims of the armed conflict who were in different stages of grief due to the loss of their loved ones as a result of the armed conflict participated in the study. The Resilience Scale SV-RES for youth and adults by Saavedra and Villalta (2008), the Coping Strategies Inventory adapted by Cano, Rodríguez, and García (2006), and the Grief Phases Scale by Miaja and Moral (2013) were used. Results: Deficiencies in the use of coping strategies were identified in the study sample, with a higher frequency of use of non-functional strategies. Women who were in more advanced stages of grief showed the use of more functional coping strategies. No correlation between stages of grief and time since loss was identified. Conclusions: The results suggest that the process of coping and grief elaboration in the sample of women victims of the armed conflict is not related to the time elapsed since their loss, but rather to the use of personological resources.

No contexto do conflito armado colombiano, as mulheres foram as mais afetadas, sendo os processos de luto os mais deficientes devido à falta de acompanhamento psicossocial. O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever a resiliência e as estratégias de adaptação numa amostra de mulheres vítimas do conflito armado e a sua relação com as fases do luto vividas. A metodologia utilizada foi quantitativa, descritiva, não-experimental, ex post-facto. Participaram no estudo 20 mulheres vítimas do conflito armado que se encontravam em diferentes fases do luto devido à perda dos seus entes queridos em consequência do conflito armado. Utilizou-se a Escala de Resiliência SV-RES para jovens e adultos de Saavedra e Villalta (2008), o Inventário de Estratégias de Adaptação adaptado por Cano, Rodríguez e García (2006), e a Escala de Fases do Luto de Miaja e Moral (2013). Resultados: Foram identificadas deficiências no uso de estratégias de adaptação na amostra estudada, com maior frequência de uso de estratégias não funcionais. As mulheres que se encontravam em estágios mais avançados do luto apresentaram o uso de estratégias de adaptação mais funcionais. Não foi identificada correlação entre as fases do luto e o tempo decorrido desde a perda. Conclusões: Os resultados sugerem que o processo de elaboração da adaptação e do luto na amostra de mulheres vítimas do conflito armado não está relacionado com o tempo decorrido desde a sua perda, mas sim com a utilização de recursos personológicos.
