The Forgiveness Scale

The Forgiveness Scale is a psychological tool used to measure an individual's capacity to forgive others. It typically assesses various factors, such as emotions, thoughts, and behaviors related to forgiveness. The scale may include statements that respondents rate, reflecting their feelings about a past hurt or offense. Higher scores indicate a greater tendency to forgive, while lower scores suggest difficulty in moving past grievances. This scale can help researchers and therapists understand forgiveness patterns and develop strategies to enhance emotional well-being and interpersonal relationships.
