Objective: This study aimed to discover the role of social support, self-efficacy, and resilience as predictors of the Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG) among a sample of Egyptians exposed to trauma.

The study also tried to examine the significance of differences in PTG according to demographic variables.

Methods: To verify the hypotheses of the study, a set of questionnaires including the demographic questionnaire, the Social Support Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale, Resilience Scale and PTG Inventory have been used.

Data was entered and analyzed by the SPSS statistical program (version 22) in addition to using statistical tests: (T) test, Pearson correlation coefficient, one-way analysis of variance, and multiple regression analysis.

Results: (1) Females had more PTG than males; (2) These factors (social support, self-efficacy and resilience) had the most effect on increasing and predicting of PTG.

Conclusion: Social support, self-efficacy, and resilience had a greater role in shaping PTG compared to demographic variables.
