| Title: | Hope, aspirations, and resilience in children and adolescents: a review of research on measurement and related antecedents | Authors: | Leung, H Wu, FKY Shek, DTL |
Issue Date: | 2016 | Source: | International journal on disability and human development, 2016, v. 16, no. 4, p. 351-358 | Abstract: | Hope, aspirations, and resilience are important developmental assets for children and adolescents. Based on the existing Western and Chinese literature, this review aims to identify instruments used to assess hope, aspirations, resilience, and conceptually related constructs as well as antecedents of the constructs in adolescents. A systematic literature search in the major databases was conducted. A total of 223 articles, with 144 being retrieved from international databases and 79 from China’s database, met the criteria and were included in the present review. Findings revealed that the majority of the existing scales were developed predominantly in the West and there were few validated Chinese hope and aspirations scales. Indigenous measures were also not identified in the literature. In terms of antecedent studies, predictors at different levels including the personal, family, school, and community were found. Implications on the development of hope-based interventions and recommendations for future research are discussed. | Keywords: | Adolescents Aspirations Children Hope Instruments Resilience |
