“…Studies specifically examining the role of hope in the elderly have included several populations in different residential settings, such as the community (18)(19)(20), continuing care facilities (21-23), and senior citizen centres (24). Some studies have focused on the elderly person's level of hope within specific illness states such as stroke (25), cancer (26), or cognitive impairment (27).…”

As part of the psychosocial developmental task of aging, most people deal with existential issues, at some level, in their efforts to achieve integrity or coherence. In his theory of human development, Erik Erickson describes distinct developmental stages across the lifespan from birth to death (1). The eighth stage occurs in late adulthood and focuses on the dynamics between ego integrity and despair. Persons who achieve integrity can reflect on their 428

“…Since they have a close and constant contact with hospitalized patients, nurses play a key role in patient education (Abdi & Asadi Lari, 2011;Farran, & Popovich, 1990).

Introduction: Patients with kidney failure often need to change their lifestyles, which can result in various psychological-social problems. The present study aims to evaluate the influence of group-based learning of stress management on psychology symptoms levels of hemodialysis patients.Method: This is a quasi-experimental, single-blind study in which 50 patients with kidney failure were randomly divided into two groups. Sampling was based on the purposeful method. Before undergoing dialysis, the patients in the experimental group were trained in stress management; the training lasted 60 minutes and was presented in 5 sessions. The patients in the control group received the standard education all the patients undergoing hemodialysis at the hospital receive. The stress levels of the patients before and after the intervention were measured by the reliable and valid questionnaire of DASS 21. To analyze the collected data, the researchers employed the statistical tests one-way ANOVA and the software SPSS 18. Result:The 50 patients under study were divided into two equal groups. In terms of such demographic characteristics as age, gender, and stress level, there were no significant differences between the two groups before the intervention. However, after the 5-week education, the stress level in the experimental group decreased from 16.96±0.90 to 8.36±1.03. In the control group, the stress level decreased from 15.92±1.44 to 13.76±1.44. After the intervention, the difference between the means of the groups' stress scores was found to be significant (p<0.001). Conclusion:The result is expected to provide new knowledge to support the effective follow-up for hemodialysis patient in order to improve their emotional and health status.

“…Participants acknowledged that they learn, grow, and achieve hope similarly through their therapeutic relationship with clients. Research shows that the counselling relationship is home to inspired growth on both sides of the association (Clutcliffe, 1995(Clutcliffe, , 2004Dufrane & Leclair, 1984;Farran & Popovich, 1990;Sprenkle & Blow, 2004). Participants in the current study described how building a strong connection with clients was essential to a mutual understanding and cultivation of hope.…”

“…Consistent with Duggleby and Wright's (2004) findings, participants in the present study described the connection spirituality had to their experience of hope. Current literature discusses the supportive influence faith has on hopeful experiences (Farran & Popovich, 1990;Hollis et al, 2007;Holtslander et al, 2005;Westburg & Guindon, 2005). Hollis and colleagues (2007) describe spirituality as a multidimensional phenomenon that encompasses religious and non-religious dimensions.…”
