Abstract

This article examines how executive functioning skills, specifically verbal and emotional intelligence, alongside borderline personality characteristics, predict posttraumatic growth (PTG) in adults who have experienced trauma. Using data from 402 American adults assessed through standardized scales and questionnaires, the study found that higher emotional intelligence and borderline personality traits, combined with lower verbal reasoning ability, significantly predicted greater PTG. The results indicate that these cognitive and personality factors collectively explain a meaningful portion of the variance in PTG, highlighting their complex role in trauma recovery.
