摘要

Purpose To investigate personal experiences of, and factors influencing hope following Acquired Brain Injury (ABI). Methods A qualitative phenomenological approach was adopted consisting of semi-structured interviews with 15 adults with ABI. Interviews were transcribed and analysed using thematic analysis, and the Social Ecological Model (SEM) applied as a guiding framework to discuss findings and implications for policy and practice. Results Five themes emerged: the importance of hope, changes in hope over time, the connection between hope and positivity, factors influencing hope and the importance of fostering hope. Participants reported varying experiences, with increased levels of hope influenced by: faith; supportive networks and professionals; goals; experiencing progress; having something to look forward to; and seeing others achieve. Professional attitudes were reported to either foster or negatively impact hope after brain injury. Conclusions These findings suggest that hope can play an important and often essential role in the lives of people with ABI. Factors influencing experiences of hope are organised against a SEM framework, identifying intrapersonal, interpersonal, institutional, community, and state and national implications for policy, professional practice and research.
