Two methods were used in the study: Life Satisfaction Questionnaire and Posttraumatic Growth Inventory. The results revealed poor relationship between positive changes aftermath trauma and life satisfaction.

Celem badań było ustalenie związku między ruminacjami a występowaniem negatywnych (objawy stresu pourazowego) i pozytywnych (potraumatyczny wzrost) następstw traumy wynikającej z doświadczania przemocy w rodzinie. Analizie poddano wyniki 89 kobiet, które doświadczyły przemocy domowej. Wiek badanych mieścił się w zakresie 18-60 lat (M = 34,36; SD = 12,81). W badaniach wykorzystano Skalę Wpływu Zdarzeń, będącą polską adaptacją the Impact of Event Scale, Inwentarz Potraumatycznego Rozwoju, który jest polską adaptacją the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory oraz Inwentarz Ruminacji o Negatywnym Zdarzeniu, będący polską adaptacją the Event Related Rumination Inventory, który mierzy dwa rodzaje ruminacji: natrętne i refleksyjne. Obydwa rodzaje ruminacji okazały się powiązane przede wszystkim z objawami stresu pourazowego. Słabsze związki zanotowano między nasileniem ruminacji refleksyjnych a potraumatycznym wzrostem. Ruminacje natrętne pełniły rolę predykcyjną dla zespołu stresu pourazowego, szczególnie intruzji i pobudzenia. Z kolei ruminacje refleksyjne okazały się predyktorami potraumatycznego wzrostu, a przede wszystkim pozytywnych zmian w percepcji siebie i relacjach z innymi. Ruminacje pełnią istotną rolę w występowaniu zarówno negatywnych, jak i pozytywnych następstw doświadczonej traumy.

The study aimed to establish the relationship between ruminations and the occurrence of negative (posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms) and positive (posttraumatic growth) effects of trauma resulting from the experience of violence in the family. The data of 89 women who have experienced domestic violence were analyzed. The participants’ age ranged from 18 to 60 years (M = 34.36, SD = 12.81). The following Polish versions of standardized tools were used: the Impact of Event Scale, the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory, and the Event-Related Rumination Inventory, the last of these measuring two types of ruminations: intrusive and deliberate. Both types of ruminations proved to be associated, above all, with posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms. Weaker associations were noted between the intensity of deliberate ruminations and posttraumatic growth. Intrusive ruminations played a predictive role with regard to posttraumatic stress disorder: above all, with regard to intrusion and arousal; deliberate ruminations proved to be a predictor of posttraumatic growth, mainly positive changes in self-perception and relations with others. Ruminations play an essential role in the occurrence of both negative and positive outcomes of the experienced trauma.

Celem podjętych badań było ustalenie czy młodzież z rozpoznanymi czynnikami ryzyka niedokrwiennej choroby serca różni się˛ od młodzieży bez takich czynników w zakresie nasilenia zachowań typu A oraz ustalenie związku między wzorem zachowania A a tymi czynnikami w grupie ryzyka. Badaniami objęto młodzież w wieku 15–18 lat. Część´ pierwsza˛ badań mająca˛na celu wykrycie biologicznych czynników ryzyka choroby niedokrwiennej serca przeprowadzono wśród 350 nastolatków. Część drugą˛ obejmującą pomiar nasilenia wzoru zachowania A przeprowadzono wśród tych nastolatków, którzy zostali zakwalifikowani do grupy ryzyka (N = 56) oraz losowo wybranych 52 nastolatków bez czynników ryzyka, stanowiących grupę porównawczą. Do pomiaru nasilenia zachowań Typu A zastosowano skalę Hunter-Wolf A-B Rating Scale w polskiej modyfikacji N. Ogińskiej-Bulik i Z. Juczyńskiego. Uzyskane wyniki badań wykazały, że skłonność do zachowań Typu A, a szczególnie wyrażania niecierpliwości-agresji, jest przejawiana przede wszystkim przez młodzież którą˛ charakteryzuje występowanie czynników ryzyka chorób sercowo-naczyniowych, tj. siedzący tryb życia, nadwaga oraz podwyższony poziom cholesterolu.

The experience of negative life events may involve such negative as positive effects. These positive, referred to as posttraumatic growth, include changes in self-perception, relations to others, and changes in philosophy of life. Among the factors that determine the occurrence of positive changes after trauma the type of experienced event and socio-demographic variables are mentioned. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between the type of experienced negative event, gender, age and severity of posttraumatic growth. The study group consists of 730 participants (49,6% men, 50,4% – women), aged 16–75 years (M = 36,5, SD = 14,3), who experienced various negative life events. Polish version of Posttraumatic Growth Inventory was used in the study. The results indicated that type of experienced event and gender were related to the level of posttraumatic growth. Moreover the results indicated that examining the relationship between socio-demographic variables and posttraumatic growth should take into account not only the overall result but also the different areas of growth.
