This study aims to validate and refine the SVPGS among Chinese women experiencing perinatal loss by addressing its psychometric properties.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>After translating the SVPGS from English to Chinese and conducting a pre\u2010test with 20 end\u2010users, followed by an assessment of content validity involving 10 experts, a cross\u2010sectional study was conducted to assess its internal reliability and structure, concurrent, convergent, divergent, known\u2010group validities among 353 women who have experienced perinatal loss across eight hospitals in Hunan Province, China. A subset of 275 participants were reassessed over a 1\u2010month interval for the test\u2013retest reliability.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The refined 15\u2010item SVPGS demonstrated excellent internal consistency (Cronbach's \u03b1\u2009=\u20090.92) and strong 1\u2010month test\u2013retest reliability (\u03ba\u2009=\u20090.83) compared to the original SVPGS. A three\u2010factor structure consisting of 15 items was confirmed through item analysis, exploratory factor analysis, and parallel analysis. Confirmatory factor analysis further validated this structure, indicating a good fit for the refined SVPGS. Concurrent validity was supported by a large correlation between the SVPGS and refined SVPGS (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.90, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.01). Convergent and divergent validities were confirmed through significant correlations with variables including depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and post\u2010traumatic stress disorder, psychological flexibility, mindfulness, self\u2010compassion, perceived social support, and quality of life. Known\u2010group validation revealed significant differences in these variables between high and low levels of the refined SVPGS.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>These findings indicate that the refined SVPGS is a brief, reliable, and valid tool for measuring grief in women who have experienced perinatal loss.
