与创伤患者一起工作的治疗师可以在这种替代性创伤暴露后经历心理成长。本研究的目的是检查变量，可能缓和这种替代性创伤后成长。治疗师（N = 118）完成了替代暴露于创伤和成长，以及同理心，连贯性和感知的组织支持的措施。结果表明，具有强烈的一致性对成长有负面预测作用（beta =-0.28，p = 0.001），而同理心是一个积极的预测因素（beta = 0.37，p <0.001）。当成长涉及与他人的关系时，共情也会调节对成长关系的暴露（β = -.20; p = .018）。组织支持并不能预测增长。研究结果对与经历过创伤的个人一起工作的治疗师的招聘，培训和监督具有影响。
Therapists who work with traumatized individuals can experience psychological growth following this vicarious exposure to trauma. The purpose of the present study is to examine the variables that may moderate such vicarious posttraumatic growth. Therapists (N = 118) completed measures of vicarious exposure to trauma and growth, as well as empathy, sense of coherence, and perceived organizational support. Results showed that having a strong sense of coherence negatively predicted growth (beta = -.28, p = .001), whereas empathy was a positive predictor (beta = .37, p < .001). Empathy also moderated the exposure to growth relationship when growth involved relating to others (beta = -.20; p = .018). Organizational support did not predict growth. The results have implications for the recruitment, training, and supervision of therapists working with individuals who have experienced trauma.
