Traumatic events have primarily been studied for their negative outcomes, such as "Posttraumatic Stress Disorder." However, traumatic encounters that destroy people's assumed worlds, on the other hand, can lead to positive experiences. Tedeschi and Calhoun define positive experiences after traumatic events as "posttraumatic growth" (PTG). Other researchers prefer to use the term "stress-related growth" to describe the beneficial alterations brought about by chronic life experiences. PTG includes changes in life priorities, the meaning of life, social relationships, personal strength, and spirituality. It is a good metamorphosis following a significant yet unpleasant life experience. Investigations into posttraumatic growth following significant life events have discovered that contributing elements of PTG vary based on trauma and that there are significant therapeutic implications in recovering from a challenging life experience. Furthermore, cultural influences have a significant impact on PTG. Recently, the "Posttraumatic Growth Inventory," a widely used assessment, was altered to take into account diverse cultures and religious affiliations. Furthermore, after PTG, a new notion known as "posttraumatic depreciation" was introduced, which has received little attention in the literature. We encourage researchers to contribute posttraumatic growth, and posttraumatic depreciation studies, to better understand the presence of differing natures within positive psychological transformations, (e.g., natural disasters, accidents, violence, loss of loved one, chronic illnesses) on people living in different countries.
The goal of the topic "Post-Traumatic Growth" is to;
• Investigate posttraumatic growth and its sub-dimensions such as changes in life priorities, the meaning of life, social relationships, personal strength, and spirituality
• Test the theoretical models identified for PTG
• Focus on factors contributing to posttraumatic growth based on trauma type
• Contribute to PTG studies with qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods
• Discover PTG through cultural and cross-cultural studies
• Apply PTG in clinical settings
• Explore posttraumatic depreciation following a profoundly important event.
Researchers are encouraged to submit papers on the following topics: • PTG with a cultural or cross-cultural focus
• PTG and PTD comparisons based on the types, nature, and meanings of specific traumatic events
• PTG-related hypotheses and theories
• PTG in clinical/therapeutic settings.
Researchers are invited to contribute to posttraumatic growth (PTG) and posttraumatic depreciation (PTD) studies, through Original Research, Systematic Review, Clinical Trial, Case Report, General Commentary, Brief Research Report, Review, Data Report, Conceptual Analysis, and Hypothesis and Theory.
