Abstract
This study aimed to determine the psychological effects of earthquakes on individuals with no history of direct potential traumatic events, their changes over time, and the influencing factors. A longitudinal qualitative design was used in the study. Data were obtained through semi-structured interviews with 14 participants. Interviews were conducted three times over 1 year: face-to-face (T0) and online video interviews (T1 and T2). MAXQDA Plus 10 qualitative research software was used for data and content analysis. It was observed that participants exhibited anxiety, physiological stress symptoms, and feelings of low self-efficacy after the earthquake. The frequency of these symptoms increased at T1, while at T2, the frequencies were lower than at T0, and some symptoms were no longer present. These symptoms were influenced by internal/external coping resources and psychosocial support, with the frequency of these factors varying at T0, T1, and T2.
本研究旨在确定地震对没有直接潜在创伤事件历史的个体的心理影响，其随时间的变化以及影响因素。本研究采用纵向定性设计。数据通过对14名参与者的半结构化访谈获得。访谈在1年内进行了三次：面对面访谈（T0）和在线视频访谈（T1和T2）。采用MAXQDA Plus 10定性研究软件进行数据和内容分析。研究发现，震后参与者表现出焦虑、生理应激症状和低自我效能感。这些症状在T1时出现频率增加，而在T2时出现频率低于T0，并且一些症状不再存在。这些症状受到内部/外部应对资源和社会心理支持的影响，这些因素在T0， T1和T2的频率不同。
