Description of Measure:
A 12-item measure of a respondent’s level of hope. In particular the scale is divided into two
subscales that comprise Snyder’s cognitive model of hope: (1) Agency (i.e., goal-directed energy)
and (2) Pathways (i.e., planning to accomplish goals). Of the 12 items, 4 make up the Agency
subscale and 4 make up the Pathways subscale. The remaining 4 items are fillers. Each item
is answered using an 8-point Likert-type scale ranging from Definitely False to Definitely
True.
It should be noted that the authors recommend that when administering the scale, it is called
“The Future Scale”.

Handout 12–2 is C. R. Snyder’s Hope Scale. Hope‚ as defined by several authors‚ is the overall perception that one’s goals can be met. More specifically‚ Snyder and his colleagues define hope as ha‎ving two necessary components: agency is the willpower or energy to get moving toward one’s goals and pathways is the perceived ability to generate routes to achieve those goals. The agency subscale score is derived by adding items 2‚ 9‚ 10‚ and 12. The pathways subscale is derived by adding items 1‚ 4‚ 6‚ and 8. A total score is obtained by adding the four agency and four pathways items. Items 3‚ 5‚ 7‚ and 11 are distractors intended to make the content of the scale less obvious. Mean scores on each subscale are 12.5‚ with the average total “hope” score being 25.
