在积极心理学,希望关注特定的未来结果的主要概念,是通过意志力(实现目标的动机)和权利(能够找到许多路线达成目标;斯奈德et al ., 1996)。乐观是积极成果的总体期望(雕工,schey &桥梁,1994)。Chang et al。(2013)研究了特征的十字路口希望和optimism-pessimism预测抑郁成人,初级保健的病人。我们目的是复制和扩展他们的发现在大学生中,预测抑郁和繁荣。大学生(N = 255)完成自我报告的措施希望和绝望(施耐德et al ., 1996;邓恩et al ., 2014)和optimism-pessimism (schey et al ., 1994)。分数集中反映了高和低水平的希望和绝望,和区分乐观和悲观的参与者。逐步回归分析检验的变量作为独立和相互作用预测抑郁和繁荣。各州希望,绝望,optimismpessimism抑郁症状和繁荣的独立预测指标。 The significant interactions between each hope measure and optimism-pessimism indicated that the impact of state hope and hopelessness was more potent in pessimists than in optimists. In pessimistic participants that had high state hope or low state hopelessness, levels of depression and flourishing approached those that had otherwise been associated only with optimists. We discovered state hope’s powerful undoing effect on depression, as well as its ability to boost levels of flourishing in pessimistic young adults. These findings have applied implications for mental healthcare professionals who work with college students. The findings suggest that promoting the cultivation of genuine hope and of eroding hopelessness each play significant roles in decreasing mental illness and increasing mental health. Specifically, states of increased hope and decreased hopelessness can significantly alleviate depression symptoms and promote flourishing even in pessimistic students.
