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.”
Coming Out Growth: Conceptualizing and Measuring Stress-Related Growth Associated with Coming Out to Others as a Sexual Minority (2010, background): “The magnitude of this relationship was consistent with those found in the SRG literature ( Linley and Joseph 2004; Park and Fenster 2004), indicating that reports of COG are not wholly due to the tendency to anticipate favorable outcomes or to engage in ‘yea-saying’ behavior.”
An Examination of Posttraumatic Growth and Posttraumatic Depreciation: Two Exploratory Studies (2008, result): “The present findings support what scholars in the area have maintained (Calhoun & Tedeschi, 1999; Linley & Joseph, 2004; Park, 1998; Wortman, 2004)—that it is important for clinicians, even while attending to potential themes of growth in the experience of their clients, to remember that there may…”
Handbook of posttraumatic growth : research and practice (2006, methodology): “Although some have argued for the use of behavioral indicators of growth (Linley & Joseph, 2004), this is no easy feat.”
The Experiences of Staff Working With Refugees and Asylum Seekers in the United Kingdom: A Grounded Theory Exploration (2011, background): “Similarly, a changed philosophy of life, as identified in the current study, is also a component feature of both adversarial (Linley & Joseph, 2004 ), and posttraumatic growth (Tedeschi & Calhoun, 2004 ), processes, which are also thought to occur vicariously (Arnold et al.”
The Posttraumatic Growth Model: Sociocultural Considerations (2012, neutral): “Although PTG, and related terms such as stress-related growth (Park, Cohen, & Murch, 1996), adversarial growth (Linley & Joseph, 2004), construed or perceived benefits (McMillen, Zuravin, & Rideout, 1995; Tennen, Affleck, Urrows, Higgins, & Mendola, 1992), and thriving (O’Leary & Ickovics, 1995),…”
UNDERSTANDING POSITIVE CHANGE FOLLOWING TRAUMA AND ADVERSITY: STRUCTURAL CLARIFICATION (2004, result): “However, recent empirical work supports the anecdotal evidence expressed in many literatures, philosophies, and religions regarding the value of suffering and the potential for growth through adversity (Linley, 2003 ; Linley & Joseph, 2004 ; Tedeschi & Calhoun, 1995 ).”
How Gratitude Influences Well-Being: A Structural Equation Modeling Approach (2013, background): “In addition, previous studies have indicated that social support is a crucial factor influencing positive coping in times of stress (e.g., Devonport and Lane 2006; Linley and Joseph 2004).”
Conservative Shift Among High-Exposure Survivors of the September 11th Terrorist Attacks (2006, background): “Regarding the latter, it is important to note that although posttraumatic growth is assumed to be a positive form of coping (e.g., Linley & Joseph, 2004), a number of investigators have begun to question whether it is in fact measuring a healthy coping response (Hall, Hobfoll, Cannetti-Nisim,…”
The Path to Posttraumatic Growth Versus Posttraumatic Stress Disorder: Contributions of Event Centrality and Coping (2011, background): “Posttraumatic growth (PTG), one such positive outcome, is characterized as growth beyond recovery directly resulting from a traumatic experience (Bonanno, 2004 ; Tedeschi & Calhoun, 2008 ).”
Greater strengths of character and recovery from illness (2006, background): “More systematic research under the rubrics of resilience and posttraumatic growth documents that at least some people emerge from crises less damaged than typical theories might predict (eg, Bonnano, 2004 ; Linley & Joseph, 2004 ; Masten, 2001 ; Taylor, 1985 ), but what remains unclear is the fr”
