520 |a As society becomes increasingly diverse, the issue about language used for assessments becomes critical. Research suggests that completing measures in a language other than one's native language may result in inaccurate scores. The Children's Hope Scale (Snyder et al., 1997), a scale assessing dispositional hope in children ages 8 to 16, was translated into Spanish for this present study. A sample of bilingual children (N=36) completed both the English and Spanish versions of the scale at 1-month intervals. A significant correlation between these two versions suggests that the Spanish version may be a useful and appropriate tool for measuring hope in Spanish-speaking children. Findings such as these can help expand the understanding of positive psychological constructs as they relate to diverse populations and can improve assessment of multicultural populations.
