Active coping as a bridge between family resilience and posttraumatic growth in Arab adolescents and youth exposed to war
The Experiences of Arab-Palestinian Youth in Israel During the October 7 War
This qualitative study explores how Arab-Palestinian emerging adults in Israel experienced the period during and after the October 7, 2023 war.
