“…16 When analyzing each of the 12 items on the scale, the three alternatives that presented higher means were, "My faith comforts me", "I believe in the value of each day" and "I feel that my life has value and utility", in descending order, for elderly caregivers. The findings corroborate studies in the literature, in which the highest means were obtained in the alternatives "I am afraid of the future", "I feel that my life has value and utility" and "I believe in the value of every day" in patients undergoing hemodialysis 7 and "I feel my life has value and utility," "I believe in the value of each day," and "My faith comforts me" in the study of oncologic patients. 16 Thus, there are similarities among the alternatives with high means, in different contexts and populations.…”

“…6 A national study has shown the existence of a relationship between hope and spirituality. 7 The spiritual dimension is considered relevant in the attribution of meanings to life and a resource of hope, since, in times of difficulties, individuals seek faith and beliefs to cope with adverse situations. 8 For caregivers, faith is a way of caring for themselves and helps them to provide themselves with the hope and strength to continue the course of life.…”

“…When assessing the spirituality level of chronic renal elderly patients undergoing hemodialysis, a study carried out in São Carlos-SP obtained lower mean scores than this study in the beliefs and hope/optimism dimensions, of 3.67 (±0.62) and 3.21 (±0.53), respectively. 7 A study carried out in Portugal tried to compare spirituality of the elderly at the time of admission and discharge from hospital, in which the spirituality level was also lower than in this study, obtaining a mean 2.76 (±0.64) in beliefs and 2.35 (±0.65) in hope/optimism, at the time of admission, and 2.72 (±0.61) in beliefs and 2.26 (±0.6) in hope/ optimism, at the moment discharge. 19 In the analysis of each of the five items that make up the PP-RSS, the three highest averages obtained in descending order were, "My faith and beliefs give me strength in difficult times", "My spiritual/religious beliefs give meaning to my life," and "I learned to value to the little things in life," which meet the literature, in which the authors who used the scale to assess chronic kidney patients undergoing hemodialysis had higher mean scores on the same items.…”

The religious/ spiritual dimension is present and relevant with the advancing age.…”

The purpose of this emergent mixed methods study was to measure hope in individuals living in poverty and to explore potential contextual influences on hope. We used a sequential mixed methods study in which the quantitative phase was administered first followed by a qualitative phase. Participants in impoverished areas scored higher in hope than a comparison group of university students. In a follow-up qualitative phase, participants named contributors to and detractors from hope that included experiences driven by environmental factors. Findings were organized according to Ecological Systems Theory (EST). Participants named factors from all levels of EST, and interactions between levels were evident. These results and findings support the inclusion of relevant contextual factors in psychological inquiry, and we suggest deliberate inclusion of individuals from all socioeconomic groups in future positive psychological research.

Spiritual well‐being of patients with chronic renal failure: A cross‐sectional study

The population of patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) has rapidly increased with the increasing prevalence of chronic kidney diseases worldwide. According to the international rankings for uraemia reported in the 2018 Annual Report of the United States Renal Data System (Saran et al., 2019), Taiwan has the highest rate of kidney dialysis worldwide. The 2018 Annual Report on Kidney Disease in Taiwan revealed that the prevalence of dialysis in Taiwan has increased in recent years. Nephrotic syndromes and nephropathy rank ninth among the 10 leading causes of death in Taiwan and contributed to death in 72.1% of adults aged 65 years or older. Thus, emphasis is warranted on the effects of these types of chronic health issues in everyday life (Ministry of Health & Welfare, 2019).Patients with CRF may experience discomfort symptoms such as anaemia, decreased urine output, oedema, increased blood pressure, acidosis and pruritus (Lin et al., 2013). These symptoms are related to the patients' renal function indices (i.e. blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine and glomerular filtration rate [GFR]). Combs et al., (2015) indicated that pruritus was the most common discomfort symptom
