Works
Tedeschi has co-authored several books on bereavement and trauma. Along with Lawrence Calhoun, Tedeschi pioneered the concept of post-traumatic growth (PTG), which is a construct of positive psychological change. It holds that this change transpires as the outcome of an individual's struggle with a highly challenging, stressful, and traumatic event.[7] After the experience, such individuals manifest a changed outlook on life and greater resilience to stress.[8] Tedeschi was also a consultant for the American Psychological Association for the development of materials that cover trauma and resilience for psychologists.[4]
