چکیده
BACKGROUND Service providers' attitudes towards recovery can improve with formal training. However, it is unclear whether improvements depend on dispositional hope. AIMS To determine whether attitudinal improvements following formal recovery training vary depending on participants' dispositional hope. METHOD One hundred and three providers attended formal recovery training and completed measures of recovery knowledge, attitudes, hopefulness and optimism. RESULTS Training improved providers' recovery knowledge, attitudes, hopefulness and optimism. Providers with both high and low dispositional hope achieved similar gains. CONCLUSIONS Attitudinal improvements following formal recovery training were not dependent on baseline levels of dispositional hope. Institutions committed to recovery-oriented care should consider utilizing formal training.
