Abstract: This study examined hope and optimism as predictors of post-traumatic growth (PTG) among 1,073 AAPI trauma survivors. Both traits correlated with PTG, with hope showing stronger effects. Findings highlight culturally specific resilience pathways and underscore the importance of cultivating these traits to support psychological growth in clinical practice.
