The present study examined the role of vitality as a mediator of the association between dispositional hope and quality of life (QoL) (namely, physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and environment) in a sample of 101 adult primary care patients. Vitality was found to fully mediate the relationship between hope and physical health, social relationships, and environment. In addition, vitality was found to partially mediate the association between hope and psychological health. The present findings are consistent with a model in which vitality represents an important mechanism through which hope affects QoL in adults. Accordingly, these findings point to the importance of fostering both hope and vitality in efforts to promote positive QoL in adults.
本研究考察了活力在特质性希望与生活质量（即身体健康、心理健康、社会关系和环境）之间的关联中的中介作用，该研究样本包括 101 名成年初级保健患者。研究发现，活力完全中介了希望与身体健康、社会关系和环境之间的关系。此外，活力部分中介了希望与心理健康之间的关联。本研究结果与一个模型一致，该模型认为活力代表了希望影响成年人生活质量的一个重要机制。因此，这些发现表明，在促进成年人积极生活质量的努力中，培养希望和活力都很重要。
