CORRECTION

In the September 2016 article “Performance of DSM-5 Persistent Complex Bereavement Disorder Criteria in a Community Sample of Bereaved Military Family Members” by Stephen J. Cozza, M.D., et al. (Am J Psychiatry 2016; 173:919-929), a clinical threshold was incompletely defined. The last sentence of the section “Applying DSM-5 Persistent Complex Bereavement Disorder, Complicated Grief, and Prolonged Grief Disorder Criteria Sets to Clinical and Nonclinical Samples” within the Method portion of the paper should read as follows:

Individual symptoms within criteria B and C were considered present if at least one of the matched Complicated Grief Questionnaire items was endorsed as being present “often” or “very often” (i.e., a rating of 3 or 4 on a 5-point Likert scale using the following anchors: “0=never,” “1=rarely” “2=sometimes,” “3=often,” “4=very often”) in the last month.
