Social isolation plays a major role in the perception of trauma which is entirely subjective in nature.

The results of the study revealed significant negative correlation between family loneliness and Post-traumatic Growth. Also, both loneliness and trauma symptoms facilitate levels of Post-traumatic Growth, with loneliness contributing slightly more to the experience of Post-traumatic Growth.
