Recenzii
Much of the literature on post-traumatic growth has been immune to methodological critique. This volume does a fantastic job presenting new perspectives that provide a foundation for a robust science of whether and how people can grow and thrive following adversity."
This is a truly outstanding multidisciplinary volume, containing a wealth of research on the meaning and assessment of post-traumatic growth, and on post-traumatic growth in particular groups and populations. It admirably marries a healthy scepticism about previous findings, and a positive outlook on future approaches. It is essential reading for anyone interested in and working in this area."
This edited volume should be required reading for anyone interested in truly understanding the phenomenon of post-traumatic growth. The research described herein uses cutting edge methods and diverse samples to seriously grapple with the conceptual and methodological issues that have hampered our understanding post-traumatic growth to date."

Notă biografică
Frank J. Infurna, PhD, is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at Arizona State University. Dr. Infurna's professional work focuses on resilience to major life stressors and psychosocial factors that contribute to healthy aging outcomes across adulthood and old age. His research on major life stressors has shown that contrary to previous research, resilience is not the modal response to major life stressors, but in fact individuals typically show substantial declines in psychological functioning, followed by gradual improvements near-previous levels. Eranda Jayawickreme, PhD is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology and Senior Research Fellow at the Program for Leadership and Character at Wake Forest University. Dr. Jayawickreme's research focuses on post-traumatic growth as positive personality change, moral personality, wisdom, well-being and integrative theories of personality. His work with populations in Rwanda, Sri Lanka, and the USA has madesubstantial contributions to further understanding whether and how growth is possible following adversity.
