Coronavirus has blighted our world, hitting some countries harder than others. Morbidity and mortality rates make Madrid one of the worst affected places so far in the wake of the coronavirus. The aim of this study was to analyze the presence of post-traumatic growth during the coronavirus crisis and to understand the contribution of meaning, religiosity, and spirituality to such growth; 1,492 people completed the questionnaire; = 1,091 residents in Madrid were selected for the study. We assessed the personal experience of COVID-19, the Spirituality, Religiosity, Meaning trough Purpose in Life-10 test, and Posttraumatic Growth (Community Post-Traumatic Growth Scale). Results showed significant differences for all measures of growth, with higher values in women. Sex and direct impact of COVID-19 accounted for 4.4% of the variance of growth. The different dimensions of meaning contribute differently to growth. Only religiosity was associated with total growth when meaning was included in the model. This same pattern of results is obtained in models predicting interpersonal and social growth. However, in predicting personal growth, it is spirituality that predicts this type of growth once meaning has been previously controlled for, while religiosity fails to reach a statistically significant level. Our results reflect the interest in maintaining the distinction between spirituality and religiosity, their different roles in traumatic growth and the different dimensions on which each has an effect. Finally, it confirms the importance of meaning in post-traumatic growth, especially the dimension of life goals and purposes.
新冠病毒给我们的世界带来了灾难，对一些国家的影响比对其他国家更严重。发病率和死亡率使马德里成为迄今为止受新冠病毒影响最严重的地区之一。本研究的目的是分析新冠病毒危机期间创伤后成长的存在情况，并了解意义、宗教信仰和精神性对这种成长的贡献；1492人完成了问卷调查；从马德里选取了1091名居民进行研究。我们评估了新冠疫情的个人经历、精神性、宗教信仰、生活意义与目标-10测试以及创伤后成长（社区创伤后成长量表）。结果显示，所有成长指标均存在显著差异，女性得分更高。性别和新冠病毒的直接影响占成长差异方差的4.4%。意义的不同维度对成长的贡献各不相同。当模型中纳入意义因素时，只有宗教信仰与总体成长相关联。在预测人际和社会成长时，也得到了相同的结果模式。然而，在预测个人成长时，一旦事先控制了意义因素，预测这种成长类型的是精神性，而宗教信仰未达到统计学显著水平。我们的研究结果反映出人们对于区分精神性和宗教信仰、它们在创伤后成长中的不同作用以及各自产生影响的不同维度的关注。最后，证实了意义在创伤后成长中的重要性，尤其是生活目标和目的这一维度。
