This study examined the mediating role of psychological resilience and gender on mental health workers' perceptions of coping with trauma and secondary traumatic stress. Following the February 6 earthquake, the study group consisted of 212 mental health workers who came from various provinces of Turkey to support the earthquake region. We collected data using the "Perception of Coping with Trauma Scale," "Secondary Traumatic Stress Scale," "Brief Psychological Resilience Scale," and "Personal Information Form." We conducted analyses using PROCESS Macro Model 4 and Model 8. The results show that the perception of coping with trauma indirectly affects secondary traumatic stress through psychological resilience. The relationship between men's perception of coping with trauma and their psychological resilience appears to be greater than that of women. The direct effect of perceptions of coping with trauma on secondary traumatic stress also varies by gender. As men's perceptions of coping with trauma and psychological resilience decrease, the level of secondary traumatic stress increases. We found no significant relationship between these three variables in women. We found that psychological resilience and gender mediate the relationship between perceptions of coping with trauma and secondary traumatic stress. While this relationship was significant for men, it was not significant for women.
本研究旨在探讨心理弹性和性别在心理健康工作者对创伤应对和二次创伤压力的认知中的中介作用。在 2 月 6 日地震发生后，研究组由来自土耳其各省份的 212 名心理健康工作者组成，他们前往地震灾区提供支持。我们使用“创伤应对感知量表”、“二次创伤压力量表”、“简要心理弹性量表”和“个人信息表”收集数据。我们使用 PROCESS Macro Model 4 和 Model 8 进行分析。结果表明，心理弹性在创伤应对认知与二次创伤压力之间起间接作用。男性对创伤应对的认知与其心理弹性之间的关系似乎大于女性。创伤应对认知对二次创伤压力的直接影响也因性别而异。随着男性对创伤应对和心理弹性的认知下降，二次创伤压力水平升高。我们没有发现女性在这三个变量之间存在显著关系。我们发现，心理弹性和性别在创伤应对认知与二次创伤压力之间的关系中起中介作用。这种关系在男性中是显著的，但在女性中则不显著。
