Individuals often turn to religion or spirituality to cope with or make sense of trauma. In this study of 222 university students who reported a history of trauma, we examined whether God representation and attachment to God were associated with posttraumatic outcomes. Trauma outcomes include both the negative impacts of trauma and the perceived posttraumatic growth (PTG) that can occur in trauma survivors. Results revealed that both an authoritarian representation of God and an avoidant attachment to God were predictive of experiences of PTG.

创伤幸存者的创伤后成长：与上帝的依恋和上帝的代表

人们经常求助于宗教或灵性，以应对或理解创伤。在这项对222名报告创伤史的大学生的研究中，我们研究了神的代表和对神的依恋是否与创伤后结局有关。创伤的后果既包括创伤的负面影响，也包括创伤幸存者可能发生的知觉的创伤后生长（PTG）。结果表明，对上帝的威权主义表示和对上帝的回避依恋都预示着PTG的经历。
