Although psychological research on sport injury has long focused on negative responses to injury, investigators have begun to explore positive consequences as well. This study examined adversarial growth longitudinally after anterior cruciate ligament surgery and rehabilitation. Participants (N = 108) completed questionnaires measuring (a) aspects of adversarial growth before anterior cruciate ligament surgery and at 6, 12, and 24 months after surgery and (b) daily pain and negative mood for 42 days postoperatively. Although most participants reported little or no adversarial growth due to their injury and rehabilitation, significant increases over preoperative values were found at 6 months postsurgery for three aspects of adversarial growth. Daily pain and negative mood were positively associated with aspects of adversarial growth at each postoperative assessment. It appears that modest but detectable increases in aspects of perceived adversarial growth can occur after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and be related to indices of adversity experienced during rehabilitation.
尽管长期以来，运动损伤的心理学研究一直聚焦于对损伤的消极反应，但研究人员也已开始探索其积极影响。本研究纵向考察了前交叉韧带手术后及康复过程中的逆境成长情况。参与者（N = 108）完成了问卷调查，内容包括：（a）前交叉韧带手术前、术后6个月、12个月和24个月时的逆境成长各方面情况；（b）术后42天的每日疼痛程度和负面情绪。尽管大多数参与者表示，他们的损伤和康复过程几乎没有带来逆境成长或根本没有带来逆境成长，但术后6个月时，逆境成长的三个方面相比于术前水平均有显著提高。在术后的每次评估中，每日疼痛程度和负面情绪都与逆境成长的各方面呈正相关。在前交叉韧带重建术后，似乎可以出现适度但可察觉的逆境成长，且这与康复过程中经历的逆境指标有关。
