| Summary: | This study seeks to determine the stability of psychological and theological hope in a sample of women during the months following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States. Both types of hope were measured every two weeks for the eight weeks following November 11, 2001. A repeated measures design found that neither type of hope was stable during this time period. There was no significant effect from vicarious traumatization in the face of overwhelming media coverage. Additional findings regarding the ameliorating effect of theological hope on phobic anxiety and theological hope as a positive coping strategy are examined. |
