“…People with mental illnesses have been at the forefront of promoting recovery attitudes, and research suggests that more individuals with psychiatric disabilities are understanding and endorsing this perspective . Family members have more recently joined the movement (D. Redlich, Hadas-Lidor, Weiss, & Amirav, 2010). Service providers seem to be late in recognition and agreement (Peebles et al, 2009;Tsai, Salyers, & Lobb, 2010).…”

Treatments have been developed and tested to successfully reduce the symptoms and disabilities of many mental illnesses. Unfortunately, people distressed by these illnesses often do not seek out services or choose to fully engage in them. One factor that impedes care seeking and undermines the service system is mental illness stigma. In this article, we review the complex elements of stigma in order to understand its impact on participating in care. We then summarize public policy considerations in seeking to tackle stigma in order to improve treatment engagement. Stigma is a complex construct that includes public, self, and structural components. It directly affects people with mental illness, as well as their support system, provider network, and community resources. The effects of stigma are moderated by knowledge of mental illness and cultural relevance. Understanding stigma is central to reducing its negative impact on care seeking and treatment engagement. Separate strategies have evolved for counteracting the effects of public, self, and structural stigma. Programs for mental health providers may be especially fruitful for promoting care engagement. Mental health literacy, cultural competence, and family engagement campaigns also mitigate stigma's adverse impact on care seeking. Policy change is essential to overcome the structural stigma that undermines government agendas meant to promote mental health care. Implications for expanding the research program on the connection between stigma and care seeking are discussed.

“…In this context, hope to be the best predictor for resilience was in line with the literature suggesting that hope encourages resilience (Benard, 1999;Brooks, 2006;Gizir, 2004;Masten, 2001;Ong, Edwards, & Bergeman, 2006;Synder et al, 2000). Moreover, hope is a protective factor for human adaptation, and for psychotherapeutic change (Magaletta & Oliver, 1999;Hayes et al, 2007), being consistently identified as a key factor in psychological counseling by client, family members and therapists in various settings (Schrank, Stanghellini, & Slade, 2008;Redlich, Hadas-Lidor, Weiss, & Amirav, 2010). …”

a b S t r a c tThe aim of this research is to examine the relationships between subjective happiness and hope. The participants were 435 university students. In this study, the Integrative Hope Scale and the Subjective Happiness Scale were used. The relationships between were examined using correlation analysis and Structural Equation Model (SEM). In correlation analysis, trust and confidence, positive future orientation, and social relations and personal value sub factors of hope were found positively related to subjective happiness. On the other hand, lack of perspective sub factor of hope was found negatively correlated to subjective happiness. Structural Equation Model showed that subjective happiness was predicted positively by trust and confidence, positive future orientation, and social relations and personal value. However, subjective happiness was negatively explained by lack of perspective. According to standardized beta coefficients (β= 0.34), the most significant predictor of subjective happiness was trust and confidence. Results were discussed in the light of the related literature. Keywords happiness; hope; future; trust; confidence r e S u m e n El objetivo de esta investigación es examinar las relaciones entre la felicidad subjetiva y la esperanza. Los participantes fueron 435 estudiantes universitarios. En este estudio, se utilizaron la Escala de Esperanza Integrativa y la Escala de Felicidad Subjetiva. Las relaciones fueron examinadas usando análisis de correlación y modelo de ecuaciones estructurales (SEM). En el análisis de correlación, la verdad y la confianza, la orientación positiva al futuro, y las relaciones sociales y los subfactores de valores personales de esperanza presentaron una relación positiva con la felicidad subjetiva. Por otro lado, la falta del subfactor de perspectiva de esperanza se encontró una correlación negativa con la felicidad subjetiva. El Modelo de Ecuaciones Estructurales mostró que la felicidad subjetiva se predijo positivamente por la verdad y la confianza, orientación positiva al futuro, y las relaciones sociales y el valor personal. Sin embargo, la felicidad subjetiva se explicó negativamente por la falta de perspectiva. De acuerdo con los coeficientes beta estandarizados (β = 0.34), el predictor más importante de la felicidad subjetiva fue la verdad y la confianza. Los resultados se discuten a la luz de la literatura relacionada.

Background: Elderly individuals experience a complex array of physiological, psychological, and social changes in their lives, which challenges their ability to participate in meaningful occupations, and can result in a diminished sense of well-being. In previous work, we proposed a broader perspective that takes into account the contribution of hope and playfulness -protective personality characteristicsto participation and well-being among the elderly. A pilot study was designed to explore this notion and examined the relationship between playfulness, hope, well-being, and participation, while accounting for cognitive decline and negative emotions.Methods: Forty six participants with mean age of 78.4 years (SD = 7.3), of which 78.3% were women and 21.7% men, were interviewed using standardized questionnaires measuring participation, well-being, sense of hope, cognitive status, playfulness and emotional status.Results: Moderate to high correlations were found between playfulness and hope and both well-being and participation. The correlation coefficient range was r = 0.47-0.70 (p < 0.05). In addition, participation correlated with cognitive and emotional status, while well-being correlated only with emotional status (r = 0.72; p < 0.01). Statistical analysis demonstrated that while playfulness and hope differed among individuals with and without depressive symptoms, they did not affect participants' cognitive status. Conclusions:The results presented here support the importance of traits such as having a sense of hope and playfulness and their role as resilient factors that may contribute to elderly well-being and participation.
