Abstract

The present research found that school climate predicts higher levels of forgiveness for at-risk youth, and that this is mediated by hope and emotion-regulation. This suggests that school climate is effective in influencing positive interpersonal tendencies such as forgiveness because a positive school climate increases hope and self-efficacy of emotion-regulation.
