Outline of Final Research Achievements

Chronic kidney disease was shown to be a good disease model for fitting hope as a motivation for disease management of patients. We also found out that their relevant hope was more realistic (maintainance of the present status) rather than achieving self-realization. Internal foundation such as process accepting chronic disease and external foundation such as social support are thought to be necessary for achieving hope. In addition, we established the new hope scale and proved its reliability and validity.
