摘要：

The Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI), Revised Grief Experience Inventory, and World Assumptions Scale were administered to 111 bereaved parents. The PTGI scores indicate that many bereaved parents report personal growth in domains outlined by L. G. Calhoun and R. G. Tedeschi (2001). Grief intensity was inversely correlated with growth scores. Self-worth was a strong predictor of growth scores, whereas assumptions about the benevolence and meaningfulness of the world were not correlated with growth.
