Symposium on Meaning & Optimism | S16 Part 3 | Meaning Conference 2002
Realistic Optimism Meets Motivated Self-Deception: Focus on Meaning and Knowledge
2 p.m. – 3:50 p.m. Symposium on Meaning & Optimism
Chair - Zander Ponzo, Ph.D., University of Vermont
E.J. Vroon, BA, Mega Leung, BA, Teresa Steinfort, BA, Trinity Western University
Paul Wong, Ph.D., Research Director & Professor, Graduate Program in Counselling Psychology, Trinity Western University
The Tragic Optimism Questionnaire: Some Preliminary Validity Data
The Tragic Optimism Questionnaire was developed based on P. T. P. Wong's existential theory of optimism. In contrast to traditional concepts of hope and optimism, tragic optimism is rooted in the heroic and courageous stance of affirming meaning, faith and hope in spite of adversities, traumatic experiences and bleak reality. Results on factorial and concurrent validity will be presented. The implications of tragic optimism for counselling and therapy will be discussed.
Educational objectives:
1) To present the rationale for an existential model of optimism.
2) To describe the development of the Life Attitudes Scale (LAS) that measures the different components of tragic optimism.
3) To present preliminary findings on the reliability and validity of the LAS. 4) To discuss the clinical implications of tragic optimism
