Latent profile analysis of post-traumatic growth and psychological resilience among patients with mental illness during the rehabilitation period: associations with social support

Heterogeneity existed in the PTG and psychological resilience of patients during the rehabilitation period. Compared with other subgroups, patients in the integrated adaptation group exhibited elevated social support resources. Healthcare professionals should utilize these groups when assessing PTG and resilience. This will allow for personalized clinical interventions based on these profiles that may help ameliorate psychological distress, increase perceived social support, and enhance overall mental well-being.
