This study extends Bernstein et al.'s (2016) investigation of the effects of the Enhanced Logo-autobiography Program on Korean-American women's depressive symptoms, coping strategies, purpose in life, and posttraumatic growth by analyzing quantitative and qualitative data. This study's participants significantly improved on quantitative measures of depression, coping strategies, purpose in life, and post-traumatic growth at eight weeks post-intervention and follow-up. The qualitative content analysis revealed 17 themes with five essential themes. The program's activity to promote purpose in life through posttraumatic growth facilitated participants' recovery from traumatic experiences. Standardized guidelines are needed to conduct this program in Korean community centers.
本研究通过分析定量和定性数据，扩展了伯恩斯坦等人（2016年）对强化标志自传计划对韩裔美国女性抑郁症状、应对策略、生活目的和创伤后成长影响的调查。本研究的参与者在干预后八周和随访时，在抑郁、应对策略、生活目的和创伤后成长的定量测量方面有显著改善。定性内容分析揭示了17个主题，其中有5个核心主题。该计划通过创伤后成长促进生活目的的活动，促进了参与者从创伤经历中恢复。在韩国社区中心开展该计划需要标准化指南。
