- Abstract:
- Background: Spiritual assessment and spiritual history (SA/SH) are essential for providing patient-centered spiritual care (SC). The HOPE spiritual assessment (HOPE) is one of the three most commonly discussed SA/SHs in the medical literature, yet no studies have broadly explored its uses. This study aims to describe the scope, uses, strengths and weaknesses of HOPE since its original 2001 publication. HOPE questionnaire: H = sources of hope, meaning, comfort, or peace; O = organized religion; P = personal spirituality and practices; E = effects on medical care and end-of-life care. Objectives: Broadly explore the various uses of the HOPE tool and the ways in which it has been used or incorporated into other studies related to spirituality. Methods: A systematic literature search and detailed citation analysis are being conducted. The literature search included PubMed, Web-of-Science, Google Scholar, PsycInfo, Academic Search Premier, CINAHL, Atla Religion Database, with AtlaSerials and SocIndex, for sources citing HOPE. This yielded 1073 unique documents. Data is being extracted from the full-text of all 1073 sources using a standardized questionnaire. Five researchers are performing statistical analysis on quantitative data and thematic analysis on qualitative data.
