“…The role of hope in the lives of patients with ESRD is an under-researched topic. My findings therefore add to the very limited claims about its role amongst this group of patients which reports that more hope was positively associated with reduced anxiety, depression, and improved mental health and QOL (Billington et al, 2008) and that keeping hope for a kidney transplant is an important factor in people"s ability to cope with ESRD and HD treatment and links to better QOL (Dencheva, 2010;Moran et al, 2010). However, contrary to my findings, other researchers found that hope has been found to be negatively related to general maladjustment (Cramer and Dyrkacz, 1998) and symptoms of depression (Chang, 2003).…”

End-stage renal disease is a complex, progressive and debilitating illness that affects patients' quality of life, physical and mental health, well-being, social functioning and emotional health. A cross-sectional survey was carried out in renal dialysis centres in Scotland to assess patients' health status and the impact of haemodialysis treatment on quality of life and well-being. A sample of 72 participants was recruited. Participants scored considerably lower than the UK general population in all domains of health-related quality of life, although mental health components were nearer to general population norms than physical health components. However, 34 (47%) participants achieved a score on a general well-being questionnaire that was indicative of stress and anxiety. Increasing age was associated with better overall mental health, but worse physical functioning. Increasing levels of hope and support were associated with improved general well-being

“…Consistent with this postulation, Myers and Myers (1999) found that control by physicians explained a substantial portion (35%) of the variance in treatment adherence amongst patients with cystic fibrosis. In addition, some researchers have posited that control by health professionals and control by non-health professionals represent relatively independent dimensions (e.g., Billington, Simpson, Unwin, Bray, & Giles, 2008; McQuillen, Licht, & Licht, 2003), but only a few studies have used separate subscales to assess these two sources of interpersonal control (e.g., Billington et al, 2008; De las Cuevas, Peñate, & Sanz, 2014). Further effort should be made to distinguish the benefits and costs of these sources of interpersonal control after more studies have been conducted.…”

Health locus of control (HLOC) refers to beliefs regarding how one’s health is influenced by oneself, others, or fate. This meta-analysis investigated whether three HLOC dimensions (internality/I-HLOC, powerful others/P-HLOC, chance/C-HLOC) were related to both specific health behaviours and global health appraisal, and whether these relationships were moderated by gender and age compositions, individualism, and power distance. Three-level mixed-effects meta-analysis was performed on studies examining the associations of HLOC with specific health behaviour (k = 76, N = 76,580, 57% women, M age = 43.75) and global health appraisal (k = 95, N = 12,068, 57% women, M age = 45.44), respectively. For specific health behaviour, the averaged correlations with the HLOC dimensions were generally weak (r’s = −.07 to .10). However, the links between P-HLOC and exercise were moderated by all four demographic moderators, and gender composition and individualism moderated the association between the HLOC dimensions and diet. For global health appraisal, all of the averaged correlations were statistically significant (r’s = −.16 to .21), except that between P-HLOC and mental quality of life. The results further showed individualism and power distance to moderate the links between the HLOC dimensions and both mental and physical quality of life, and gender composition to moderate those between these dimensions and two indicators of emotional problems (depression and anxiety).

“…Previous researchers [6][7][8][9] suggested that hope predicts psychological adjustment and the self-worth of ill individuals. Consistent with the extant literature, we found that hope also predicted rehabilitation behavior, subjective well-being, and rehabilitation beliefs in the context of sport injuries.…”

“…4,5 Researchers in the field of medicine and health psychology consider hope an important factor in helping people to persevere when they face challenges and threats, such as end-stage renal failure, chronic pain, traumatic physical disability, and sport injury. [6][7][8][9] Important features of the hope model 4,5 are the 2 components that shape one's hope perception: the ability to initiate and to maintain the actions necessary to reach a goal (ie, hope agency) and the positive belief that one is able to generate routes to goals (ie, hope pathways). In sport settings, empirical evidence 10,11 showed that both agentic thinking and pathways to formulate one's hope perception are very important.…”

Context: Injuries are a significant problem in the world of sports. Hope and social support are very important features in providing psychological help as people face life challenges such as sport injuries.Objective: To examine how hope and social support uniquely and jointly predict postinjury rehabilitation beliefs, rehabilitation behavior, and subjective well-being.Design: Cross-sectional study. Setting: Four sports-injury rehabilitation centers of local universities in Taiwan.Participants: A total of 224 injured Taiwanese collegiate student-athletes.Main Outcomes Measure(s): The Trait Hope Scale, the Sports Injury Rehabilitation Beliefs Survey, the Satisfaction with Life Scale, the Positive Affective and Negative Affective Scale, and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support were completed by participants after they received their regular rehabilitation treatment.Results: We conducted hierarchical regressions and found that social support and 2 types of hope in injured athletes predicted their rehabilitation beliefs and subjective well-being. However, only hope agency predicted their rehabilitation behavior. Also, hope and social support had an interactive effect on the prediction of subjective well-being; for participants with low hope pathways, the perception of more social support was associated with higher levels of subjective well-being, whereas social support had only a relatively low association with subjective well-being among participants with high hope pathways.Conclusions: Enhancing hope perceptions and strengthening injured athletes' social support during rehabilitation are beneficial to rehabilitation behavior and subjective well-being.

Does hope predict adjustment to end‐stage renal failure and consequent dialysis?

Abstract: It appears that hope is a significant predictor of adjustment to ESRF. Clinical implications of this research are discussed, along with suggestions for future research.
