“…Ego-resilience was positively correlated with PTG. Chang [20]'s study of college students found that resilience was reported to have a significant influencing on PTG, consistent with the results of this study. Moreover, several prior study [13] have shown that there is a close relationship between resilience and PTG, which can further increase PTG.…”

“…The tool had a 14 questions, each of which was measured on a 4-point scale from 1 point of 'rarely so' to 4 points of 'very much', meaning that the higher the average rating, the higher the degree of resilience. In the research of Chang [20], Cronbach's α=0.75, and in this research it was 0.84.…”

“…In terms of gender, men had higher PTG scores than women, and Park's [25] study also supported this finding of the study, as men had higher PTG scores than women. Meanwhile, studies by Chang [20] and Sim et al [6] did not show differences by gender. Like this, each study shows each different result, so it is necessary to repeat conducting studies about differences in PTG by the general characteristics of the subjects in the future.…”

Most of the early adults in Korea have more than one traumatic experience during COVID-19 pandemic. The experience of a traumatic event causes psychological distress of the individual, making daily life difficult, and suffering from Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and anxiety. However, individuals who responded well to post-traumatic stress develop into a different level of competence and value than their pre-traumatic level of adaptation after trauma. The aim of this study was to analyze factors related to the levels of Post-traumatic Growth (PTG) in young adults with trauma, using the variables of the impact of event, ego-resilience, social support, meaning in life, fear of intimacy during the COVID-19 pendemic. Data were collected from 152 young adults in 4 cities from Macromill Embrain, a company specializing in the collection of data from online questionnaires, which have been created as online questionnaires. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlational coefficients, and multiple regression analysis. Traumas frequently experienced by respondents were traffic accidents and the death of family members or relatives, and the common time was two to three years ago. Respondents' PTG showed positive correlation with egoresilience, support from significant others, support from the family, support from friends, and meaning in life. PTG showed negative correlation with impact of event and fear of intimacy. Factors influencing PTG of respondents were the meaning in life (β = 0.38, p < 0.001), ego-resilience (β = 0.28, p < 0.001), support from friends (β = 0.17, p = 0.020), and impact of event (β = 0.13, p = 0.046). Influencing factors account for 41.0% of PTG in young adults. It is necessary to consider the variables o f the research results revealed in education and counseling for PTG in young adults.
