Abstract

Introduction

Despite well-established evidence on the relationship between social support and posttraumatic growth (PTG), there remains a paucity of evidence regarding the mechanism that underlie this relationship.

Objective

This study examined the relationship between social support and PTG, while exploring self-compassion as an intermediatory factor in this association.

Method

A cross-sectional study with 447 college students was conducted in Trabzon, Turkey. The data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM).

Results

Results indicated that perceived social support and self-compassion were associated with PTG. Furthermore, a significant indirect effect between social support and PTG via self-compassion emerged.

Conclusion

Based on the study findings, tailored intervention programs targeting self-compassion and perceived social support in trauma-exposed young adults may be useful for promoting posttraumatic growth.

自我同情在社会支持与创伤后成长关系中的作用

尽管社会支持与创伤后成长(PTG)之间的关系已经有了完善的证据，但关于这种关系背后的机制仍然缺乏证据。目的探讨社会支持与创伤后应激障碍之间的关系，并探讨自我同情在二者之间的中介作用。方法对土耳其特拉布宗市447名大学生进行横断面研究。采用结构方程模型(SEM)对数据进行分析。结果社会支持感和自我同情感与焦虑焦虑有显著相关。此外，社会支持与自我同情之间存在显著的间接影响。结论基于研究结果，针对创伤暴露青年自我同情和感知社会支持的针对性干预方案可能有助于促进创伤后成长。
