- Abstract
The psychopathological consequences of traumatic experiences have been object of study from the beginning of medical science. During the last centuries, the scientific literature in the field of mental health mainly focused on the negative consequences of traumatic events. More recently, increasing interest was paid to the features of resilience and to the possible positive consequences of trauma, leading to the concept of Post Traumatic Growth (PTG). However, the eventual co-existence of both the conditions should also be considered. The role of vulnerability and environmental factors in the balance between positive and negative outcomes after life events is discussed, particularly in light of a neurodevelopmental approach to psychopathology.
