Exploring the hope construct in psychotherapy.

▼ While
hope has been theorized to play an important role in psychotherapy (Fitzgerald, 1979; Frank, 1968; Frank & Frank, 1991; Stotland, 1969; Yalom, 1995), the respective body of literature offers little empirical evidence for this seemingly common belief among mental health professionals. It is the purpose of this paper to explore the role of
hope in psychotherapy. A decade ago (1991a), Snyder and colleagues developed a goal based theory and measure of
hope, which is use in this study. They define
hope as the overall perception that goals can be met, and consider it an interaction of two factors agency (goaldirected energy) and pathways (planning to meet goals). This study primarily examines the question: Does the degree of
hope significantly change from pretreatment to five sessions of psychotherapy? Ancillary investigations explore the relationship of
hope at pretreatment with premature termination and Stages of Change Scale (SCS), a readiness for change measure (McConnaughy, DiClemente, Prochaska, & Velicer, 1989; McConnaughy, Prochaska, & Velicer, 1983). Findings support previous theories that
hope, normally considered a stable trait, does increase during psychotherapy. However, in the present study no relationships are apparent between
hope and premature termination or the readiness for change measure (SCS). Findings support previous theoretical statements in the literature regarding
hope as an important part of the psychotherapy process. In addition, findings suggest the need for further inquiry to better understand the involvement of
hope in the psychotherapeutic process.

Where Does Hope Fit In? The Relationship Between Hope, Uncertainty, and Coping Efficacy in Mothers of Children with Duchenne/Becker Muscular Dystrophy.

▼ Background: Duchenne and Becker Muscular Dystrophy (DBMD) is a complex, progressive, and ultimately terminal condition laden with caregiver uncertainty often related to prognosis, medical management, social, and existential concerns. This uncertainty can make adaptation more difficult for mothers, yet some view uncertainty as allowing for the opportunity of positive outcomes. Literature suggests that the concept of
hope may influence this appraisal of uncertainty. It is not yet fully understood how mothers of children with DBMD appraise, cope with, and ultimately adapt to their child’s DBMD in light of this uncertainty or the role
hope plays in the process. Objective: To examine the relationships between maternal uncertainty,
hope, and coping efficacy among mothers of children with DBMD. Methods: Mothers of children with DBMD were recruited through the Duchenne Connect Registry, Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy, and Cincinnati’s Children Hospital. A cross-sectional
design with quantitative methodology was used to examine the relationships among maternal uncertainty, coping efficacy,
hope, and other mother and child characteristics. Several open-ended questions were included to assess how mothers appraise uncertainty. Results: The predominant focus of mothers’ uncertainty was medical management and social support. Multivariate analysis revealed that older mothers’ age, higher
hope scores, and having less ambulatory children were significantly associated with less uncertainty. Mothers with lower
hope scores, higher perceptions of uncertainty, and those reporting being less spiritual were less confident in their ability to cope with their child’s DMBD. Conclusions: Because younger mothers and those with ambulatory children with DBMD perceive more uncertainty, especially uncertainty related to medical management and social support, efforts to help mothers manage uncertainty may be more effective if tailored towards mothers of children with new
diagnosis and specific domains of uncertainties most salient to them. Additionally,
hope seems to be a factor in shaping uncertainty appraisals and facilitating coping efficacy. Although future studies are needed, interventions aimed at bolstering maternal
hope or guiding mothers with low
hope to other uncertainty management and reappraisal strategies may be helpful. Thesis Committee Members: Holly Peay, M.S., CGC (advisor); Joann Bodurtha, M.D., MPH; Anne Riley, Ph.D.; Kathryn Wagner, M.D., Ph.D. Thesis Readers: Holly Peay, M.S., CGC (advisor); Joann Bodurtha, M.D., MPH

▼ Homeless late adolescents, also referred to as transitional age youth (TAY) age 16-24, have been underreported in homeless census counts and as a result remain invisible to the general public. The unique needs of this population arise out of the new research in neuro development that uncovered that the brain is not completely developed until age 24. Additionally, the literature revealed that the pathways into homelessness in this population are predominantly out of their control. Personal backgrounds of abuse and neglect in the homeless TAY population leave them more susceptible to further abuse on the streets. Armed with limited life skills and a plethora of emotional problems, homeless TAY appeared to lack
hope. The purpose of this study was to establish a baseline measurement of
hope in this homeless TAY population which can be used to develop interventions to improve
hope in future work with this population.
Sources of Data
The Miller
Hope Scale (MHS) was used to assess
hope levels in the study population. The MHS was administered to homeless TAY who utilized the Family and Youth Services of San Joaquin County California drop in center for emergency need services. Precautions were taken to ensure street drugs or severe mental illness did not alter participants. The study participants were not retested so the resulting data was classified as a pilot study.
Conclusions Reached
The major finding of the analysis was that this homeless late adolescent population reported high
hope scores on the MHS. An unexpected result of this study was that the homeless late adolescent population scores were significantly higher than the healthy university student norm population comparison group from Miller???s study. This result contradicts an anticipated finding that assumed homeless late adolescents of this study would have low
hope scores.

Climate Courage & Radical Hope: How Ought We Respond to the Decreasing Likelihood of Successfully Addressing Climate Change?.

▼ In our current context, given the scientific and political realities with which we are faced, it is evident that the likelihood of successfully addressing climate change is rapidly decreasing. The central question of this thesis is how we ought to respond to this predicament, focusing particularly on the role that
hope has to play in answering this question. It will be argued that
hope is necessary for any legitimate response to our current situation, both in terms of justifying a response and motivating it. That is, a response cannot be justified if there is no
hope of it delivering positive results, and if it is perceived that there is no chance of the
hope being fulfilled then no one will be motivated to pursue that response.
To argue that
hope is an essential element of any justifiable response to our current predicament, the nature of
hope will be examined and
hope will be distinguished from both wishful thinking and optimism. However, it will be argued that although
hope is necessary in our current context, it is also not clear that it is possible. It will also be suggested that the alternative, giving up, cannot provide us with a justified response. Given this, the concept of radical
hope,
hope for an indeterminate good that transcends ones current understanding of the good, will be explored as a possible alternative. It will be suggested that radical
hope shows one way that we may retain
hope, despite the decreasing likelihood of successfully addressing climate change, and that this
hope could inform our response to this predicament.

▼ Skilled worker immigrants can encounter many
challenges as they settle in Canada. For individuals facing
adversity, hope often helps in facing and overcoming difficulties
(Edey & Jevne, 2003). The purpose of this study was to
explore how the hope of skilled worker immigrants changed during
their settlement process. Basic qualitative research (Merriam,
2009) informed the study design. Based on thematic analysis of
interviews with four skilled worker immigrants, four meta-themes,
referred to as phases, emerged. The findings are represented by
these four broad phases, the last phase of which has two
alternatives: (1) Arriving with High Hopes and Expectations, (2)
Experiences Challenge Hope, (3) Crossroads: Hope or Hopelessness,
and (4A) Getting Stuck in Anger and Sadness or (4B) Choosing Hope
and Finding Strength. All participants regained their hope, which
appeared closely related to their successful settlement and
functioning. The implications of this research for counselling and
policy are discussed.

▼ M.A.
This research was undertaken to explore how Black South African children experience hope in general, and secondly, whether the constructs of pathways and agency are evident in their experiences of hope. The research was conducted in the hope that it will contribute to the existing theory of Hope in children and as no research could be found on hope in Black South African children. Specifically, the researcher wanted to gain insight into whether hope, as conceptualised by Snyder (2000), is experienced by Black South African children. Hope reflects individuals’ perceptions regarding their capacity to clearly conceptualise goals, develop strategies to reach those goals (pathwaysthinking), and initiate and sustain the motivation for using those strategies (agency-thinking) (Snyder et al., 2003). Hope is a motivational construct that falls within Positive Psychology, a movement that has called for an examination of psychological strengths, rather than of pathology. Existing literature is largely focused on earlier positive psychology constructs such as coping, and there had been limited focus on children and the manifestation of psychological strengths in South Africa. Therefore, the aim of the present research was to explore strengths, like hope, in Black South African children. The dissertation first focuses on the review of the literature on positive psychology, hope, and the use of stories and narratives to facilitate the understanding of hope in children. The literature review provides a history of psychology and the development of positive psychology. Hope as conceptualised by Snyder is reviewed, as well as a focus on how hope affects children. In this study a qualitative approach was used to explore the stories of hope by Black primary school children. The participants consisted of six children who were interviewed. The narratives and data were analysed using thematic iv analysis. The themes that emerged from the analysis are presented in the results chapter. It is evident from the narratives that some of the children experienced difficulties expressing what hope meant to them, as they did not have an understanding of the construct. Although some of the children experienced problems engaging with the construct, some of the children were able to talk about hope and what it meant to them, and also relate to past experiences where they displayed hopeful behaviour. The differences in how the children experienced hope could be attributed to whether their family and school experiences and environment enhance hope in the children. The results are discussed in terms of the literature, as well as in the South African context. Finally, a summary of the research together with the limitations and recommendations for further research is offered.

▼ Hope theory (Snyder et al., 1991) is a cognitive
framework for understanding how individuals plan and stay motivated
to achieve their goals. Research suggests that high levels of
hope
among adolescents are associated with academic achievement and
markers of career exploration (Day, Hanson, Maltby, Proctor, &
Wood, 2010; Kenny, Walsh-Blair, Blustein, Bempechat, & Seltzer,
2010). However, some scholars have raised criticisms about the
conceptual underpinnings of
hope and its applicability to the lives
of marginalized groups (Tong, Fredrickson, Weining, & Zi, 2010;
Riele, 2010). Despite these criticisms,
hope theory has been used
to study academic achievement among students of color (Chang &
Banks, 2007; Roesch, Duangado, Vaughn, Aldridge, and Vilodas,
2010). Existing studies have most often utilized quantitative
frameworks that have provided limited insight into how
hope is
experienced in the daily lives of low income students of color and
how it may embody their relational, social, and cultural contexts.
A qualitative framework is well suited for addressing these
shortcomings. The current study employed a phenomenological
methodology to explore how low income students of color defined
hope and experienced it in their daily lives. Twenty one students
enrolled in a work-based learning program at an urban Catholic high
school were interviewed individually and participated in a group
written activity on
hope in their communities. The results of the
study showed that goal pursuit was embedded within a relational
context where participants embodied the opportunities and barriers
experienced in their families, schools, and communities. The
participants defined
hope in ways that surpassed existing theory
and elucidated the dynamic and sometimes contradictory role of the
social context. These findings provide avenues for intervention in
the lives of marginalized youth that frame discussions of WBL
programs within a larger social context where relational processes
are vital for student success.

▼ This dissertation demonstrates how the urgent condition of crisis is routine for many non-governmental (NGO) and non-profit organization (NPO) workers, activists, lawyers, social movement analysts, social designers and ethnographers. The study makes a contribution to the increasing number of anthropological, legal, pedagogical, philosophical, political, and socio-legal studies concerned with pragmatism and
hope by approaching crisis as ground,
hope as figure, and pragmatism as transition or placeholder between them. In effect this work makes evident the agency of the past in the apprehension of the present, whose complexity is conceptualized as scale, in order to hopefully refigure ethnography's future role as an anticipatory process rather than a pragmatic response to crisis or an always already emergent world. This dissertation is based on over two years of fieldwork inside NGOs, NPOs, and think tanks, hundreds of conversations, over a hundred interviews, and archival research in Seoul, South Korea. The transformation of the "386 generation" and Roh Moo Hyun's presidency from 2003 to 2008 serve as both the contextual background and central figures of the study. This work replicates the historical, contemporary, and anticipated transitions of my informants by responding to the problem of agency inherent in crisis with a sense of scale and a rescaling of agency. I demonstrate this scale of agency-ideology, field, sacrifice, discourse, project, and agenda-along with its double bind entanglements. In so doing this dissertation shows the utopian and post-utopian
hope in rescaling kinship from filiation to affiliation and rescaling agency from person to movement and from revolution to social design. Ultimately, this dissertation demonstrates the importance of scale and its shifts in the generation and sustainability of
hope for NGO and NPO workers, activists, lawyers, social movement analysts, social designers, and ethnographers alike.

▼ Objective: To complete an integrative review of the studies on pediatric chronic illness utilizing the Children's
Hope Scale to determine the association between
hope and thechronically ill child. Method: A comprehensive review of PubMed, PsycINFO, Academic Search Complete, CINAHL, The Cochrane Library, ProQuest, and Dissertations Theses was completed. Titles were reviewed, selected abstracts were then assessed, and full papers were obtained. Results: Ten studies were found which met the specified inclusion criteria: participants less than or equal to 19 years of age, an illness of more than three months in duration, and
hope measured by the Children's
Hope Scale. The studies found some support for the positive effect of
hope for children with chronic illness, but more research needs to be done with larger samples. Conclusion: This integrative review supports the positive impact of
hope on the chronically ill child and the need for additional research on the role of
hope in the chronically ill child.

▼ Kaikki kääntyy parempaan - toivoa nuorten terveyden edistämiseen
Tutkimus tuotti uutta tietoa nuorten oman toivoa ylläpitävän ja vahvistavan toiminnan jakautumisesta mielensisäiseen ja konkreettiseen toimintaan. Suurin osa nuorista mainitsi myönteisen asennoitumisen elämään tärkeimmäksi toivoonsa liittyväksi tekijäksi.
Tutkimuksessa kuvataan yli viidenkymmenen eri puolelta Suomea kotoisin olevan nuoren näkökulmasta toivoa, sen sisältöä ja vaikutuksia, sekä toisten ihmisten merkitystä nuorten toivon tuottamisessa. Tutkimus on yhteiskunnallisesti ajankohtainen terveyspolitiikan, nuorten itsensä ja heidän perheidensä näkökulmasta. Aihe on kansallisesti ja kansainvälisesti hoitotieteessä vähän tutkittu. Saatuja tuloksia voidaan hyödyntää opetuksessa, sosiaalityössä sekä eri toimijoiden nuorten hyvinvointia ja terveyttä edistävässä toiminnassa.
Elokuvat ovat minulle kuin terapeutti, ne ylläpitävät toivoani
Konkreettisesta toiminnasta tunnistettiin 13 eri toimintamuotoa. Uutta oli nuorten toivon liittyminen elokuvien katsomiseen, kirjoittamiseen, piirtämiseen, lukemiseen, matkustamiseen, musiikin tekemiseen ja luontoon, sekä se miten konkreettisella toiminnalla vaikutetaan toivoon.
Nuoren toivoa ei saa murskata
Nuorten toivo on päivittäisen elämän peruselementti, jonka voimakkuus vaihtelee ja sitä voidaan vahvistaa. Toiset ihmiset voivat ylläpitää ja vahvistaa nuorten toivoa muun muassa turvaamalla elämän perusedellytykset.
Nuorten annettiin vapaasti kuvata asioita, jotka he liittävät aiheeseen. Tutkimuksen kuluessa nuorista kysyttiin muun muassa: Mitä toivo on nuorten kuvaamana? Miten nuori itse ylläpitää ja vahvistaa toivoaan? Aineisto koostuu nuorten yksilöhaastatteluista, sähköpostivastauksista ja nuorten kanssa Internetissä kirjautumista edellyttäviltä keskustelupalstoilta käydyistä keskusteluista, jotka analysoitiin aineistolähtöisellä sisällönanalyysillä. Osa aineistosta kvantifioitiin. Tulosten raportoinnissa pitäydyttiin nuorten omiin ilmaisuihin ja tulkintojen oikeellisuus varmistettiin nuorilta itseltään uusinta haastatteluilla.; The purpose of the thesis was to describe hope and the factors that maintain and fortify it from the point of the young`s view aged between 15 and 20 years. The thesis sought answers to the following questions: What is hope as the young describe it? How do they maintain and fortify hope themselves? How do their own actions maintain and fortify hope? How can another person maintain and fortify the young`s hope? The method of approach in the thesis was qualitative with 52 youngsters participating. When gathering the material, the method of triangulation was used by incorporating individually held interviews (15), through e-mail received replies (21), and internet discussions requiring login (16). In addition, repeated interviews were held (6). The material was analysed by using inductive analysis of the contents. In the material analysis quantification of the material was utilized.
The results show that the young`s sense of hope is the basic element of everyday life. Hope also means…

▼ Hope is tied to better outcomes across development;
however, quantitative studies have shown that girls experience a
significant decrease in their hope during early adolescence.
Research that has been done on hope in early adolescence uses adult
conceptualizations of hope and applies them to an adolescent
context. This qualitative study sought to describe and understand
the development and experience of hope for early adolescent girls
experientially and conceptually. Photo-assisted interviews were
conducted with four participants and transcripts were analyzed
using Basic Interpretive Inquiry (Merriam, 2002). Experiences of
hope common to participants suggested that hope has unique
qualities during early adolescence for girls. The following four
themes emerged: Experiential Hope, Hope and Identity, Hope in
Relationships, and Hope Threatened; Hope Renewed. Implications for
counseling and research, as well as directions for future research
are discussed.
Subjects/Keywords: development; early adolescence; hope

A Narrative Inquiry Into Teachers’ Experiences of Working

▼ The research puzzle, in this study, evolved as I made
sense of making hope visible in my interactions at a centre that
studied how intentionally using hope enhances quality of life. Over
a period of 12 years I developed a set of five hope-focused
practices (LeMay, Edey, & Larsen, 2008). In this
dissertation I considered three conceptions or ways of working with
hope and hoping in education alongside a fourth conception, which I
named a Deweyan-inspired narrative conception of hope. Following
that I outlined the hope-focused practices (LeMay et al., 2008)
along with other theoretical considerations. My research puzzle
asked: What are teachers’ experiences with hope-focused practices
in their curriculum making (Clandinin & Connelly, 1992)? I
invited two teachers from two different school districts who were
participants in ongoing professional development sessions to work
alongside me to make sense of their experiences of working with
hope-focused practices. Sheila, Carmen and I attended to their
stories to live by (Connelly & Clandinin, 1999) using the
commonplaces of narrative inquiry: temporality, sociality and place
(Clandinin & Connelly, 2000) from January 2012 to July
2013. As we moved from field texts to research texts, we
co-composed narrative accounts of their experiences. After looking
across their narrative accounts, I identified four resonant
threads. The first thread was learning to live with hope in early
childhood. The second resonant thread was being in the midst of
embodying hope. The third thread was sharpening an embodied way of
being with hope. The fourth resonant thread was the courage to be
with hope (Tillich, 1952). By engaging in this inquiry I learned
that hope matters but it cannot be imposed; the commonplaces of
narrative inquiry inspire an understanding of a narrative
conception of hope as an embodied lived experience; and the
Deweyan-inspired narrative conception of hope makes it possible to
live alongside the dominant conceptions of hope in
education.

▼ Ph.D. University of Hawaii at Manoa 2016.
This dissertation examines various conceptions of hope in Kant’s Critique of Judgment, Bloch’s Principle of Hope, Dōgen’s Shōbōgenzō, and others. Through an analysis of hope in the above works, I demonstrate that hope is the power to organize our experience and transform the ways in which the world appears to us in accordance with our own ideals. Elucidating this mechanism of hope reveals that distinct ideals in the above theories give rise to two different kinds of hope: the goal-driven and future-oriented conception of hope and the practice-focused and present- oriented conception of hope. The former is evident in Kant’s philosophy and Bloch’s Principle of Hope that emphasize the significance of the universal ideal and the possibility of its achievement in the future, whereas the latter is evident in the teachings of Zen Buddhism that rejects the idea of enlightenment as a future goal and advocates the nonduality of practice and enlightenment. While the dominant discourses of hope can be characterized as the former, this dissertation explores the possibility of launching a praxis theory of hope as a response to the diminishing significance of the universal ideal in the contemporary time. Unlike the dominant theories of hope with the idea of the universal ideal, a praxis theory of hope as a norm can accommodate diverse perspectives and values, showing the importance of hoping itself rather than a specific content of hope based on a set normative standard. While aesthetics exemplifies such theory of hope in Western philosophy, as Rancière’s political aesthetics demonstrates so, this dissertation examines Dōgen’s Zen Buddhist soteriology as an alternative approach to hope and a constructive response to the diminishing significance of the universal ideal. Exploring the possibility of launching a new theory of hope as a norm, this dissertation also contributes to the growing scholarship on hope by initiating a much-needed cross-cultural dialogue to demonstrate the mechanism of hope through its various conceptions in different value systems. Through socially embedded and historically enriched theories from different philosophical traditions, this dissertation attends to diverse values and addresses hope in the fullest sense as an expression of ideals.

▼ This study investigates how well the goals of local officials align with the stated goals of
HOPE VI in the case of the Liberty Green development in Louisville, KY. Research revealed that there it is not necessarily the goals of decision makers that are in conflict, but the stated goals of
HOPE VI themselves stand in conflict with one another. Two major components of
HOPE VI are in constant tension-the impact on residents and neighborhood development goals. Evidence from this study suggests that most of the emphasis for the Liberty Green
HOPE VI development revolves around neighborhood and community development goals. And self-sufficiency, while a goal of the
HOPE VI program, remains secondary.

▼ Hope has been defined as "the sum of perceived capabilities to produce routes to desired goals, along with the perceived motivation to use those routes" (Snyder, 2000 p. 8). Hope has the potential to influence several aspects of a child's life. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between a child's hope, quality of life, and spirituality. This research study explores how children utilize hope in their everyday life. Participants answered three surveys, Children's Hope Scale, KINDLr, and Youth Spirituality Scale (YSS) and drew their interpretation of Hope. A total of 23 school aged children participated in the study. Participants were in grades first through seventh, ages seven to twelve years. Findings revealed significant correlation between hope and quality of life (r = .571) and hope and spirituality (r = .422). Further analysis revealed significant correlations between Hope sub-scores, agency thinking and pathways, and Quality of life sub-scores. In addition, results revealed the agency thinking and pathways coincide with each other on several dimensions of a child's quality of life. Children's scores on the HOPE scale predicted spirituality, as measured by the YSS, F=4.55 (p=.05) and quality of life, as measured by the KINDLr, F=10.12 (p=.004). Children's drawings revealed numerous, positive, and diverse themes including kindness and compassion towards others, motivation/validation, on-going belief in self, healing/recovery, and, religious.

▼ Previous investigations have observed that elevated
hope is a significant predictor of both academic and athletic achievement among male and female track and field student athletes, even when controlling statistically for natural athletic ability. Little is known, however, about the influence of
hope in other athletic domains. Accordingly, the purpose of the present study was to examine the relationship between
hope and academic and athletic performance - operationalized as GPA and playing time, respectively - among 100 Division I football players at a large mid-western university followed over the span of three seasons. Based on past research it was predicted that higher
hope would be associated with increased academic and football-related performance. Likewise, it was predicted that domain-specific
hope (i.e.,
hope regarding academic and athletic domains of achievement, respectively) would yield more robust prediction than would a general, nonspecific measure of trait
hope. As expected,
hope was positively associated with academic achievement, both concurrently and prospectively. However, it was inversely correlated with athletic achievement (playing time) in a subset of relevant analyses even when controlling statistically for natural physical ability. Domain-specific measures of academic and athletic
hope proved to be largely unrelated to performance indices in their respective domains.

▼ Previous research has shown that depressed clients who
engage in more homework activity during the course of psychotherapy
tend to improve more than clients who engage in less homework. A
significant portion of what homework compliance consists of is the
progress one makes on short-term, often weekly, goals that are set
in session and pursued in the interim between sessions. This study
explored whether a brief two-session goal-focused intervention
would improve goal progress during two behavioral homework
assignments and reduce symptoms of depression. A total of 103
introductory psychology students with elevated depressive symptoms
and low levels of
hope signed up for group sessions, with groups
randomized to a goal-focused intervention or a control condition.
Participants in the intervention learned skills to improve their
goal setting and goal pursuit, whereas participants in the control
condition were only encouraged to visualize the success of their
goal pursuits. Conditions did not differ in goal progress at either
assessment, nor in the rate of change in depressive symptoms over
the two weeks. Similarly, conditions did not differ in rate of
improvement on state
hope or state anxiety. However, there was a
significant
hope by condition interaction in predicting rate of
change in depressive symptoms such that participants with low
hope
experienced greater symptom change in the intervention group. There
was also an interaction between
hope and condition in predicting
goal progress (but only during the first week). The findings of
this study have implications for psychotherapies that place
importance on assigning homework. Though further research is
needed, these results raise the possibility that enhanced focus on
goal skills may facilitate homework compliance and treatment
outcome for low
hope clients.

▼ According to the National Center on Family Homelessness, in 2011 the United States led industrialized nations with the largest number of homeless women and children; not since the great depression have so many families been without homes. Women are the fastest growing segment of that population. Many different solution strategies have been identified as most constructive in solving this growing epidemic. The purpose of this study is to identify and measure factors that women find most beneficial in helping them successfully transition out of homelessness. This study used a survey and interview questionnaire to collect data from a nonprobability purposive sample of 37 women who were at that time experiencing homelessness. When participating in the study the women were all participating in a job-readiness and empowerment program offered by Women???s Empowerment in Sacramento, California.
The survey questionnaire focused on the various factors both external and internal that have helped women exit homelessness and become more self-sufficient. The results of the survey and questionnaire found that the majority of participants valued internal factors such as spirituality, self-efficacy, support systems and
hope over external factors such as organizations, programs, education, leaders, and housing programs. Participant???s level of
hope was measured by the Adult
Hope Scale by Snyder, 1991. The findings indicated that the participants, although presently experiencing homelessness had high levels of
hope. Summary of findings support the strengths-based model, and reflect the importance of internal factors in relation to successful transitions out of homelessness. The recommendations include the incorporation of strength-based practices as well as building on and utilizing internal factors when assisting women as they transition out of homelessness so that they are able to create a foundation for self-sufficiency. The
hope is that this foundation will limit the amount of women that experience multiple instances or chronic homelessness.

▼ The primary purpose of this study was two-fold: 1) to determine if a relationship exists between proactive personality and social entrepreneurial intentions among African American and Hispanic undergraduate students; and 2) to determine if hope moderates the relationship between proactive personality and social entrepreneurial intentions. The findings demonstrated that there was indeed a positive relationship between having a proactive personality and social entrepreneurial intentions among students; these findings supported the conclusions made by Crant (1996) which demonstrated that proactive students tend to have intentions to become entrepreneurs. Also, the findings demonstrated that hope did not moderate the relationship between proactive personality and social entrepreneurial intentions. This was surprising, however, it may be that African American and Hispanic undergraduate students need more than hope to increase their desire to become social entrepreneurs. The researcher concluded that it is likely that the moderated relationship was not supported because some students may not yet possess the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to create social enterprises. Future research should consider other possible moderating mechanisms involved in the proactive personality and social entrepreneurial intentions relationship. It is possible that entrepreneurial parents, entrepreneurial self-efficacy, socio-economic status, and other variables may moderate the relationship between proactive personality and social entrepreneurial intentions. Researchers and practitioners may have to conceptualize frameworks that can aid in training and developing social entrepreneurs. Critical pedagogy and the Center of Creative Leadership’s Assessment, Challenge, and Support (ACS) model can be utilized.

▼ This research distinguishes between two concepts—
hope
and hopefulness—that researchers have previously used
interchangeably. A behavioral experiment paired with functional
neuroimaging demonstrates that these two concepts have both
different behavioral effects and different neurophysiological
effects in the context of risky decision-making. While
hope leads
to risk-averse behavior, hopefulness leads to risk- seeking
behavior. The present investigation also highlights the
neurophysiological processes underlying these effects and shows
that whereas
hope is associated with activation in the insula, the
prefrontal cortex, and anterior cingulate, hopefulness is
associated with activation in the nucleus accumbens, globus
pallidus, and caudate. This research makes original contributions
to the stream of investigations studying the effects of positive
emotion on risky decision-making and presents novel insights into
the neurophysiological correlates of discrete positive
emotions.

▼ Major Depression is the leading cause of disability in the United States and has been studied for decades. Research suggests that daily hassles may increase the likelihood of depressive symptoms while daily uplifts may help protect against depressive symptoms (Mayberry & Graham, 2001). Snyder's hope theory (Snyder et al., 1991) provides an avenue for understanding how hope can protect against symptoms of depression. Hope, hassles, uplifts, and depressive symptoms were assessed at three time points with one-month intervals in a sample of 186 undergraduate students via self-report measures. Results, analyzed using a Generalized Estimating Equation, were threefold: there was (1) a significant main effect of trait hope (chi-squared= 9.18, p = .01), (2) a significant main effect of uplifts (chi-squared = 3.96, p <.05), and (3) a significant two-way interaction between trait hope and uplifts (chi-squared = 3.94, p = .05). No significant findings related to hassles were observed. These findings are consistent with prior hope and hassle/uplifts theories, but expand upon research by demonstrating longitudinal findings and a unique hope/uplifts relationship. Implications for a concurrent analysis of hassles and uplifts and clinical interventions with hope-based and uplift-based elements are discussed.

▼ To examine risk and protective factors for suicide in a clinical sample, 62 individuals seeking outpatient therapy were sampled. Participants completed several questionnaires assessing anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation,
hope, optimism, and the interpersonal-psychological theory of suicide. Overall, results revealed that both
hope and optimism were significantly negatively related to perceived burdensomeness and thwarted belongingness. This suggests that people who have higher
hope or optimism are buffered from suicide risk. Further, the interpersonal psychological theory of suicide approached significance in predicting suicidal ideation. It is important to note that the current study was a strong test of these hypotheses since known risk factors for suicidal behavior were statistically controlled for in all analyses.

▼ ABSTRACTThe University of ManchesterJohn Glynne
Prysor-JonesDoctorate in CounsellingHope Springs Internal:
Counsellors’ Experiences of
Hope in the Counselling
Relationship2015The purpose of this research was to explore
counsellors’ experiences of
hope in the counselling relationship in
a number of counselling contexts, early in the twenty-first century
in the United Kingdom. This research takes place against the
background of considerable changes in mental health policy
affecting counselling in both England and Wales. The wider
political, social-cultural and economic context was marked by
recession and uncertainty. A lack of research into counsellors’
experiences of
hope in the UK context was identified.A
phenomenological perspective was taken as appropriate for exploring
human experience with a social constructionist approach to the
creation of knowledge complementing realist ontology with a
pragmatic under pinning. Semi-structured interviews were conducted
individually with seven participants chosen using purposive and
convenience sampling in both England and Wales from within
professional networks and a variety of counselling settings. The
transcribed data was analysed using Thematic Analysis and
identified themes evidenced with quotations from the data.The main
findings were in the context of
hope identified as a common human
experience. Participants’ found difficulty in accessing their
experiences of
hope and it was found to be an intermittent and
liminal experience varying in intensity and part of a meaning
making process. Characteristics of this liminality were found to be
placing participants at the limit of what they knew, living with
uncertainty and waiting for new knowledge to emerge. This created
vulnerability for some participants.
Hope was also found to be an
embodied relational experience within counsellors which they also
saw in their clients.Implications of the findings suggested that
counsellors could more actively cultivate awareness of their own
hope as a resource for clients within an understanding of
counselling as a social and liminal process. It is recommended that
professional training and Continuing Professional Development
workshops provide opportunities for exploring
hope in the context
of liminality. Future research opportunities include encouraging
counsellors to use case study method to explore their own
experiences of
hope in counselling relationships and that of
clients. These findings are presented as specific to this context
and not as general truths.

▼ This thesis argues that there is structural dissonance in university-based initial early childhood teacher education programmes in Aotearoa/New Zealand, and suggests a pedagogy of enacted
hope as a countermeasure. In this thesis, structural dissonance is constructed as a form of structural violence, which is based on the contradiction between socioculturalism in the content of IECTE programmes and individualisation in the context in which they are provided.
This theoretical thesis uses Richard Rorty’s (1979, 1982, 1989, 1999) neo-pragmatic assumptions on truth, reality and knowledge to provide a coherent and consistent approach to the argument of structural dissonance and enacted
hope. Distinctions between truth and justification, reality and appearance, found and made are rejected, and utility for social justice, language use, and an ironist approach to scholarship are adopted.
This thesis uses philosophical hermeneutics as a methodology for interpreting the textual sources that make up the data drawn upon in this thesis. This methodology is linked to interpretive scholarship, research bricolage, and the constructivist paradigm in qualitative research. The methods used in this thesis
are an ecological hermeneutic, ideal type method (converted into an interpretive method of textual analysis) and focus groups of student teachers.
This thesis constructed two ideal types. The ideal type for socioculturalism is used to argue that the content of IECTE programmes is heavily influenced by socioculturalism. The ideal type for individualisation is used to argue that the context in which IECTE programmes are provided reproduces individualisation. Socioculturalism and individualisation are shown to be dissonant in the structure of a case IECTE programme in Aotearoa/New Zealand resulting in a situation of structural dissonance.
A pedagogy of enacted
hope is then proposed to counteract structural dissonance in the case study IECTE programme in Aotearoa/New Zealand. This pedagogy is constructed using a theory of
hope developed through the integration of Ernst Bloch’s (1986) philosophy of
hope, Rortyan philosophical assumptions and enactivist learning theory. Implications of using the pedagogy of enacted
hope are then discussed in relation to the problem of structural dissonance.

▼ This study explored the experience of
hope in people with aphasia following stroke during the post-acute rehabilitation period.
Hope has been suggested to be important for recovery and rehabilitation in other healthcare populations. For example, some studies have found higher levels of
hope to be associated with higher levels of quality of life.
A systematic review of
hope in people with stroke, completed as part of this thesis, suggested people with stroke consider
hope essential for recovery.
Hope appeared to be experienced in three different ways – as an inner state, as outcome-oriented and as an active process. It was also related to levels of quality of life and depression. However, the review was limited as there were only a small number of studies that explicitly explored
hope after stroke. In addition, people with aphasia were sometimes excluded from these studies despite aphasia being a relatively common consequence of stroke.
This current study drew on an Interpretive Description methodology to explore how
hope was experienced by people with aphasia following stroke during the post-acute rehabilitation period, and what factors appeared to influence the experience of
hope. Data were collected through multiple semi-structured interviews. Supported communication techniques were used to facilitate full participation of the individuals with aphasia. Data were analysed using a number of methods – coding, thematic analysis, narrative construction, diagramming and memoing.
Five people in the post-acute period of rehabilitation participated in this study. Participants were between two and five months post-stroke at the time of the interviews; all were participating in rehabilitation through outpatient or community-based services. They were aged between 41 and 62 years of age and had varying aphasia severity, as measured by the Western Aphasia Battery – Revised.
The data identified a core theme of “The Simplicity and Complexity of Hope”.
Hope was experienced in two ways. Simply ‘having’
hope appeared to be the primary form of
hope. It was a passive state where participants had a broad sense of
hope about their present state and future possibilities. At times, participants engaged in actively hoping – an active, future-oriented form of
hope that could involve a process of identifying hopes for the future and working toward hopes. While this experience of
hope appeared simple at face value, analysis indicated it was dynamic and complex. A number of factors appeared to influence how a person experienced
hope. These factors were: uncertainty about the future; viewing
hope as double-sided; and a sense of disruption. These appeared to be influenced by the participants’ past experiences, current situation and perceived future. As a result, different forms of
hope were experienced at different times. Sometimes they engaged in actively hoping and at other times, they appeared to retreat from actively hoping, instead focusing on simply ‘having’
hope.
Based on the findings of this study and on the existing literature…
