Posttraumatic Growth in the Recovered, the Chronic, and Their Caretakers

Poster Session VIII

Keyword: Life Stages

Abstract: Posttraumatic growth (PTG) was higher for those recovered from than those currently ill, and higher for caretakers than for those currently ill. Length of illness was positively related to PTG, with less robust results observed for caretakers and those currently ill. Measurement issues related to PTG will be discussed.
