    • Qualitative Research

    Context:

    • Understanding the multifaceted nature of hope is crucial in healthcare settings.
    • Patient and healthcare provider perspectives offer unique insights into psychological constructs.
    • Hope plays a significant role in the recovery and coping processes of patients, particularly those with chronic or debilitating conditions.

    Purpose:

    Summary:

    • A written association test was administered to 55 nurses and 61 patients, asking them to list three words related to "hope."
    • A total of 289 words were collected and analyzed, yielding three primary categories: components of hope, metaphors/symbols, and synonyms.
    • These categories were further partitioned into subcategories, providing a nuanced definition of hope and its associated processes.
