“…Crowd-powered technologies could intervene in at least two cognitive components believed to be important for healthy goal pursuit -"pathways thinking" and "agency thinking" (Snyder, 2002). Pathways thinking, as described by Snyder (2002), is the process of identifying the specific routes and steps needed to attain a goal. Crowds could be recruited to help users define clear blueprints for goal attainment.…”

Recent advances in crowdsourcing have led to new forms of assistive technologies, commonly referred to as crowd-powered devices. To best serve the user, these technologies crowdsource human intelligence as needed, when automated methods alone are insufficient. In this paper, we provide an overview of how these systems work and how they can be used to enhance technological interventions for positive psychology. As a specific example, we describe previous work that crowdsources positive reappraisals, providing users timely and personalized suggestions for ways to reconstrue stressful thoughts and situations. We then describe how this approach could be extended for use with other positive psychological interventions. Finally, we outline future directions for crowd-powered positive psychological interventions.

“…Feelings of hope related to climate change, for example, likely increase the probability that individuals will choose to engage with the issue and adopt beliefs and behaviors consistent with efforts to stem the problem (Markowitz and Shariff 2012;Snyder 2002;Swim et al 2010). Hope is often aroused as perceptions of efficacy, the belief that an individual has the capacity to implement a proposed response to a threat and that the recommended action can effectively mitigate the threat, increase (Bandura 1977).…”

A public health frame arouses hopeful emotions about climate change

et al. 2012

Communication researchers and practitioners have suggested that framing climate change in terms of public health and/or national security may make climate change more personally relevant and emotionally engaging to segments of the public who are currently disengaged or even dismissive of the issue. To evaluate these assumptions, using a nationally representative online survey of U.S. residents (N01,127) conducted in December, 2010, we randomly assigned six previously identified audience segments on climate change to one of three experimental conditions. Subjects were asked to read uniquely framed news articles about climate change emphasizing either the risks to the environment, public health, or national security and the benefits of mitigation and adaptation-related actions. Results show that across audience segments, the public health focus was the most likely to elicit emotional reactions consistent with support for climate change mitigation and adaptation. Findings also indicated that the national security frame may possibly boomerang among audience segments already doubtful or dismissive of the issue, eliciting unintended feelings of anger.

“…In other domains, research has shown that hope in both its trait and state forms is an effective predictor of various performance-related behaviors (Snyder, 2002). More specifically, previous studies demonstrated that trait hope predicted performance and grade either directly (e.g., Marques et al, 2011; or indirectly (Curry et al, 1997;Peterson et al, 2006), through state hope.…”

The present study examined the relationships among hope, in its trait and state forms, perceived ability in sport, and students' grades in physical education classes (GPEC). Participants were 216 French students from middle and high schools. Consistent with previous studies (Curry, Snyder, Cook, Ruby, & Rehm, 1997;Peterson, Gerhardt, & Rode, 2006), results from a 6-month prospective study revealed that perceived ability predicted final GPEC, through the mediating role of state hope. Moreover, dispositional hope predicted perceived ability in PE, and state hope that, in turn, positively predicted final GPEC. Implications and future research directions are discussed in light of the present research.
