TY - JOUR PY - 2023// TI - Development and evaluation of a post-traumatic growth program for teachers victimized by students or parents in South Korea: a quasi-experimental study JO - Issues in mental health nursing A1 - Kim, In Ja A1 - Kim, Ji Young SP - ePub EP - ePub VL - ePub IS - ePub N2 - This quasi-experimental, nonequivalent control group study developed an eight-session post-traumatic growth program for teachers who had experienced violence from students and/or parents and examined its effects on rumination, burnout, and post-traumatic growth. A convenience sample was recruited from 11 elementary schools in Jeonbuk province, South Korea. The experimental group (n = 27) participated in bi-weekly sessions over four weeks, whereas the control group (n = 27) read educational materials on post-traumatic growth during the same period. The experimental group exhibited significantly greater decreases in intrusive rumination and higher post-traumatic growth than the control group. The program could be an effective intervention to assist traumatized teachers.
