| Popis | The current chapter has the primary purpose of laying the theoretical grounds on which the cross-cultural empirical research program of the Hope Barom-eter between 2017 and 2021 was developed and executed. The two main goals of this chapter correspond to the inter-and transdisciplinary methodology applied in our work. The first goal is to give a brief interdisciplinary overview of psychological, philosophical, and theological theories presenting different perspectives from which the existential phenomenon of hope has been studied. Following previous research, hope will be examined along six general dimensions, which highlight the nature of hope as cognition, as affect, as behavior, as a social phenomenon, as a virtue, and from a religious perspective. Based on the similarities and complementary views of these different conceptualizations of hope, a basic transdisciplinary concept or model of hope will be presented. |
