The Effects of Psychological Resiliency Program (PRP) on Post-Traumatic Stress and Resiliency Level of Veteran’s Spouses at the 15 July Coup Attempt
This quasi-experimental research investigated the effects of Psychological Resiliency Program (PRP) in post-traumatic stress and resiliency level of veteran’s spouses at the 15 July Coup Attempt in Turkey. In the study, 28 women whose husbands were veterans due to the 15 July Coup Attempt and who applied to a non-governmental organization named as Association of 15 July between 2016-2017 were reached with the necessary permissions. The study was conducted with 15 women from 28 women having a veteran spouse at 15 July Coup Attempt and obtaining a high score on the Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist Civil Version (PCL-C) and a low score on the Resilience Scale in pre-test assessment. The 15 women in the experimental group were divided into two according to their location (n=7 and n=8). Two experimental groups received PRP which is an 8-session, psychological intervention group program developed by the researcher. To determine the immediate and long-term effects of the PRP program, post-tests were applied on all the participants before PRP, after PRP, and 2,5-months after the PRP, respectively. For repeated measures in data analysis of the research, one-way ANOVA has been used. This study has pointed out that psychological resiliency program was signifacntly effective in reducing post-traumatic stress level in women. Moreover, PRP was significantly effective in increasing psychological resiliency level of women, permanently. The findings have been discussed in accordance with the related literature and recommendations were made to the related parties.
