Objective      To investigate the relationship of posttraumatic growth (PTG) with self acceptance and resilience in new recruits after military training．      Methods      Connor-Davidson resilience questionnaire (CD-RISC)

posttraumatic growth inventory(PTGI)

self acceptance questionnaire（SAQ）

positive affect scale(PAS) and pychological stress self-evaluation test（PSET）were applied to examine 651 new recruits from some troop after first military training in the year of 2013．      Results      The score of PTGI were 45.90±18.59. And those with high educational levels had higher score (

P

0.01). Compared with lower PTG group

higher PTG group r

eported higher PAS

CD-RISC and SAQ (

P

0.01)，and lower PSET (

P

0.01). Positive affect totally mediated the effects of stress and self acceptance on PTG

and also partially mediated the relationship of resilience and PTG.       Conclusion      Positive affect

resilience

self acceptance and stress are important influencing factors of PTG. Positive affect and resilience can be used as important predictive factors for PTG in new recruits after first training.
