“…During the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, PTG has been examined in various countries worldwide, such as China (Mo et al, 2022; Yu et al, 2022), the United States (Zhou et al, 2020), Sweden (Xie & Kim, 2022), Greece (Kalaitzaki, 2021; Koliouli & Canellopoulos, 2021), Spain (Prieto-Ursúa & Jódar, 2020), Saudi Arabia (Arnout & Al-Sufyani, 2021), and Poland (Tomaszek & Muchacka-Cymerman, 2020), and in specific population subgroups such as health care workers in Greece (Kalaitzaki & Rovithis, 2021), nursing students in Turkey (Yıldız, 2021), nurses in Taiwan (Chen et al, 2021) and China (Mo et al, 2022). Evidence suggests that as long as COVID-19 is perceived as a stressful and potentially traumatic event, a significant proportion of people can achieve PTG (i.e., 39%–89%; cited in Asmundson et al, 2021).…”
