Understanding the psychological impact and perspective of earthquake victims in Turkey & Building Resiliency Through Post Traumatic Growth

Started June 23, 2023

Abstract or project description

Summary by Nilsu (to be lightly edited this week): We are writing an article in collaboration with Polygence about the psychological resilience and post-traumatic growth of earthquake survivors. Our goal is to better understand the psychological process experienced by earthquake survivors and how this event affects them not only financially but also spiritually in order to help other individuals who have gone through similar experiences and raise awareness. By combining the insights gained from the interview with a post-traumatic growth perspective, we aim to present a comprehensive article.

We believe that sharing your personal story, resilience, and healing process can greatly contribute to others' understanding. Our interview will consist of 11 questions and will take approximately 20-30 minutes of your time. If you wish, we can share the questions in advance. Recording the conversation would be the most accurate way to capture the details and accurately present your experiences in the article.
