| Abstract: | The article discusses the concept of hope enhancement interventions, which is a subset of positive psychology. It explains that hope can be defined as having goals, pathways to reach those goals, and agency to take action. The article traces the development of hope theory and the emergence of therapeutic interventions to increase hopefulness. It also suggests potential additions to future hope interventions, such as incorporating external sources of pathways and agency, and integrating factors like gratitude and a sense of belonging. The article highlights a recent study on a hope intervention for lung cancer patients and discusses the potential for technological innovations in hope interventions. It emphasizes the importance of rigorous research in this field and the need for hope as a coping mechanism in the face of global challenges. [Extracted from the article] |
