While most healthcare workers would agree that hope is necessary for healthy living, the current understanding of hope and hoping is incomplete. This article reports on a study that attempted to answer the question: Do bereavement counselors inspire hope in their clients, and if so, how? The study used a modified grounded theory method and collected data, by means of interviews, from a total sample of 12 participants, comprising bereavement counselors and ex-clients who had received bereavement counseling. The data were coded and analysed using the constant comparative method, which produced an emerging, integrated, substantive grounded theory of hope inspiration for this client group. This theory includes a core variable: the implicit projection of hope and hopefulness; and three subcore variables: forging the connection and the relationship; facilitating a cathartic release; and experiencing a good (healthy) ending. The theory indicates that this hope inspiration appears to be a subtle, unobtrusive process that was bound up with the necessary and sufficient human qualities in the counselor and the projection of these into the environment (and client).
虽然大多数医护人员都认同希望是健康生活所必需的，但目前对希望和怀有希望的理解并不完整。本文报道了一项研究，该研究试图回答以下问题：丧亲辅导员是否能激发其客户的希望？如果能，是如何做到的？该研究采用了改良的扎根理论方法，通过访谈从总共12名参与者的样本中收集数据，这些参与者包括丧亲辅导员和接受过丧亲辅导的前客户。使用持续比较法对数据进行编码和分析，从而为该客户群体生成了一种新出现的、综合的、实质性的关于希望激发的扎根理论。该理论包括一个核心变量：希望和怀有希望的隐性投射；以及三个子核心变量：建立联系和关系；促进宣泄释放；以及经历一个美好的（健康的）结局。该理论表明，这种希望激发似乎是一个微妙、不显眼的过程，它与辅导员身上必要且充分的人性品质以及这些品质在环境（和客户）中的投射密切相关。
