Laura J. Brumfield: Global Women PTSD, Networking Challenges, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

This book an embedded mixed-methods project examining the interactions between networking behavior, post-traumatic stress disorder, and the perception of quality in networking experiences for women internationally. Findings from an internationally diverse group of women who engage in networking behaviors show that, across cultures, women with higher total scores on the International Trauma Questionnaire (ITQ) tend to have higher scores on the Networking
Behavior Scale (NBS). Women internationally who meet the diagnostic ITQ cut-off for PTSD tend to express a more negative than positive impact of social supports and relationships, overall negative impacts on their emotions and sense of self, and changes associated with loss and their needs in recovery all of which contribute to their perceptions of lower quality in their networking experiences. Of note, these changes in real networking experiences and in perception of quality
in networking experiences make it more difficult internationally for women to fully engage in and benefit from certain kinds of networking events and behaviors
