Review : This
handbook is a primer for practitioners and researchers striving to incorporate
the assessment of human
strengths, resources, and fulfillment into their work. Contributors aptly
examine the scientific underpinnings and practical applications of measures of
hope, optimism, self-efficacy, problem solving, locus of control, creativity,
wisdom, courage, positive emotion,
self-esteem, emotional intelligence, empathy, attachment, forgiveness, humor,
gratitude, faith,
morality, and quality of life. Vocational and multicultural
applications of positive
psychological assessment are also discussed, as is the measurement
of contextual variables that may facilitate the development or enhancement of
human strength. The variety of perspectives offered will be immensely helpful
to readers who wish to incorporate balance into their assessments and research through
the integration of theoretically grounded positive measures. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2007 APA, all
