Citations in the corpus

• ‘It was Hard, But it was Good’: a qualitative exploration of stress-related growth in Division I intercollegiate athletes (2012, background): “Calhoun and Tedeschi (2006) noted that although an increase in compassion for others is often reported in conjunction with growth, there is no empirical evidence suggesting that it translates into altruistic acts.”
• The Posttraumatic Growth Model: Sociocultural Considerations (2012, methodology): “CO PY RI GH TE D M AT ER IA L the model of PTG that we have been developing over the years (Calhoun & Tedeschi, 1998, 2004, 2006; Tedeschi & Calhoun, 1995, 2004) and that we build upon in this chapter.”
• “Bouncing Back” from Adversity: Athletes’ Experiences of Resilience (2008, background): “Researchers in psychology have recently begun studying adaptive reconfiguration following adversity (see Calhoun & Tedeschi, 2006).”
• Trauma Type and Posttrauma Outcomes: Differences Between Survivors of Motor Vehicle Accidents, Sexual Assault, and Bereavement (2010, background): “To date, research has examined PTG in groups who have experienced various types of trauma (e.g., Calhoun & Tedeschi, 2006; Shakespeare-Finch & Enders, 2008; Tedeschi & Calhoun, 1996) or in groups of survivors of a specific type of trauma.”
• Perceiving benefits after adversity: The relationship between self-reported posttraumatic growth and creativity. (2013, background): “Other researchers have argued that subjective growth (such as the growth documented in the present study) may be the precursor to more genuine psychological or behavioral growth (Calhoun & Tedeschi, 2006; for a review see Zoellner & Maercker, 2006).”
• Time of Change? The Spiritual Challenges of Bereavement and Loss (2006, background): “The degree to which people experience growth from their struggle with bereavement may be a result, in part, of the social acceptance or constraint they encounter in attempts to self-disclose (Calhoun & Tedeschi, 2006; Dyregov, 2003-2004).”
• A short form of the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (2010, background): “One is that none of the studies from which data were obtained employed a longitudinal framework in which growth was assessed at multiple points in time, something that is challenging in practice, but desirable nevertheless (Calhoun & Tedeschi, 2006).”
• Posttraumatic Growth and Depreciation as Independent Experiences and Predictors of Well-Being (2010, methodology): “A key element in current models of posttraumatic growth (Calhoun & Tedeschi, 2006; Janoff-Bulman, 1992, 2006; Linley & Joseph, 2004) is the expectation that the process that may eventually lead to growth is begun by circumstances that challenge or shatter important elements of the assumptive world.”
• Posttraumatic Growth in the Aftermath of Trauma: A Literature Review About Related Factors and Application Contexts (2013, background): “Besides the presence of highly stressful circumstances in the most traumatic events, it is not guaranteed that PTG arises in all trauma situations (Calhoun & Tedeschi, 2006).”
• Gender Differences in Self-Reported Posttraumatic Growth: A Meta-Analysis (2010, background): “…needed to validate the development of gender-specific interventions for posttraumatic growth, this shortcoming does not negate the potential benefit of having clinicians attend to the possibility of growth following highly stressful events (Calhoun & Tedeschi, 2006), particularly with male clients.”
