This research aims to explore the life experiences of relocated earthquake survivors with PTSD and develop a conceptual framework for understanding their life experiences.
Interviews were conducted with twenty-three participants. The participant selection, data collection and analysis were based on grounded theory methodology. A theoretical model called "loss of homeland" was developed.
Loss of homeland was the most important condition that influenced the relocated participants' self-identity, social connections, and meaning system. These aspects were categorized into existential changes, lost connections, and changes in identity. Post-disaster relocation threatens individuals' sense of meaning, integrity of self, and sense of belonging, affects every aspect of everyday life and shatters their inner and outer harmony.
Further research guided by this theoretical model is needed to inform post-disaster mental health services and relocation policy. Mental health professionals and policy makers can make more informed decisions in terms of disaster relocation policy and manage post-disaster psychological disturbances by focusing on both places and people.
本研究旨在探讨 PTSD 地震幸存者的生活经历，并为理解他们的生活经历构建一个概念框架。
对 23 名参与者进行了访谈。参与者选择、数据收集和分析均基于扎根理论方法。提出了一个名为“失去家园”的理论模型。
失去家园是影响受灾安置者自我认同、社会联系和意义系统的最重要条件。这些方面分为存在变化、失去联系和身份变化。灾后迁移威胁着个体的意义感、自我完整性和归属感，影响日常生活的方方面面，打破了他们的内在和外在和谐。
需要进一步研究该理论模型，为灾后心理健康服务和迁移政策提供信息。心理健康专业人员和决策者可以通过关注人和地点，在灾难迁移政策方面做出更明智的决策，并管理灾后心理困扰。
