Abstract
We tested the possible relationship between Time Perspectives (TPs) and PTSD-vulnerability among Syrian refugees in Greece. We have used the Standard Arabic version of the Zimbardo Time Perspectives Inventory (ZTPI) by Djarallah; the Posttraumatic Symptom Scale by Raphael et al., and the Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale by Schwarzer and Jerusalem. Our results indicate that Past Negative, Present Fatalistic, and Future are associated with PTSD and that the Deviance from a Negative Time Perspective (DNTP) as an overall configuration plays an essential role. Refugees could benefit from the implementation of TP therapy with the aim of reaching a Balanced Time Perspective.
