Posttraumatic growth (PTG) is defined as positive psychological change in the wake of highly challenging circumstances. Healthcare workers in particular are more vulnerable to stressors and trauma than the general population. The current study examined the use and effectiveness of a novel positive psychological intervention based on Chinese traditional culture to improve PTG in hospital healthcare workers. The intervention was provided to 579 healthcare workers at hospitals in Guilin, Shenzhen and Xiangtan. Scores on the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) and its subscales were significantly higher after intervention than before (p < 0.001). Of the five aspects of PTG, the aspect of "new possibilities" benefited the most from intervention (Cohen's d = 0.45). PTG in women, nurses and college graduates increased to a greater extent than other participants after intervention. It was concluded that our novel intervention is effective at improving PTG in medical staff.
创伤后成长(PTG)被定义为在极具挑战性的环境下出现的积极心理变化。医护工作者比普通人群更容易受到压力和创伤的影响。本研究旨在探讨一种基于中国传统文化的新型积极心理干预措施在提高医院医护工作者 PTG 中的应用和效果。该干预措施提供给了桂林、深圳和湘潭的 579 名医护工作者。干预后,创伤后成长量表(PTGI)及其子量表的得分明显高于干预前(p<0.001)。在 PTG 的五个方面中,“新的可能性”方面受益最大(Cohen's d=0.45)。干预后,女性、护士和大学毕业生的 PTG 增长幅度大于其他参与者。研究结论认为,我们的新型干预措施在提高医务人员的 PTG 方面是有效的。
