本研究旨在建立一套喪親兒童繪本團體方案，並透過實際運用，瞭解繪本團體方案適用性，探討喪親兒童在繪本團體呈現的哀悼任務歷程變化、哀悼任務內涵，以及哀悼歷程與繪本主題的關聯。繪本團體成員為四名喪親二到四年的國小四、五年級兒童，參與每次四十分鐘，共計十三次之繪本團體諮商。本研究於團體前、團體後對成員家長與導師進行訪談表訪談；在團體過程中全程錄音、錄影並轉錄為逐字稿進行分析。本研究主要發現如下：成員透過繪本團體的參與已能接受親人死去之事實，團體後期主要悲傷反應為「想念」、「捨不得」、「想起來偶爾會難過」等；喪親後的生活適應議題有「家中經濟狀況變差」、「家人長時在外工作，自己無人陪伴」、「需幫忙做家事」、「親人可能有新的伴侶」等。繪本團體歷程約可分為兩個階段，第一至第六次屬第一階段，為早、中期哀悼任務階段；第七至第十三次屬第二階段，著重於晚期哀悼任務。本研究針對上述研究結果加以討論，並提出實務與未來研究之建議。
