【 摘 要 】

The terrifying aftermath of trauma can cause both negative and positive psychological outcomes. Traumatic events can induce people to experience a series of strong negative emotional responses, resulting in symptoms of psychological distress, such as post-traumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) and anxiety/depressive symptoms (e.g., Wang et al., 2005). Conversely, positive outcomes usually identify with post-traumatic growth (PTG), which refers to the experience of positive psychological change that occurs as a result of the struggle with highly challenging life circumstances (Tedeschi and Calhoun, 2004).
