 Do teenagers recover from traumatic situations? Identification of types of change and relationship with psychopathology and copingIrina Planellas, Ernesto Magallón-Neri, Teresa Kirchner, Maria Forns and Caterina Calderón Children and Youth Services Review, 2020, vol. 116, issue C Abstract: Teenagers may experience potentially traumatic interpersonal and non-interpersonal events in everyday life that could cause discomfort. The general aim of this study was to explore changes over time in the perception of such discomfort and the psychopathological symptoms and coping linked to such change. The specific objectives were to: (a) describe the potentially traumatic life events (PTLEs) reported by participants; (b) analyze types of change in the distress experienced at the time that the event occurred and now according to gender and the time elapsed since the PTLE, and (c) assess psychopathological symptoms and coping styles according to four categories of change in distress (no-distress, permanence in initial distress, increased distress and decreased distress).
