Abstract
Claire Holland examined the hope levels of law students at JCU and developed an original model for measuring law student wellbeing. Hope levels were found to be a useful wellbeing measure, and that increasing law students’ levels of hope could support some mitigation of psychological distress symptoms that contribute to poor mental health.
