Abstract
The present study examined hope as a predictor of vitality and life satisfaction over other salient predictors in 203 multiethnoracial adults. Beyond affirming the importance of ethnoracial discrimination and social support, findings highlight the value of considering both hope agency and pathways in understanding positive psychological adjustment in multiethnoracial adults.
