The **Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS)** is a psychological assessment designed to measure negative attitudes and feelings about the future. It consists of 20 true-or-false items that assess an individual's level of hopelessness, often associated with depression and suicidal ideation.
The BHS is used in both clinical and research settings to evaluate the risk of self-harm and to monitor changes in a patient’s outlook over the course of treatment. Its focus on pessimism and a lack of hope makes it a valuable tool in understanding the cognitive aspects of mood disorders.
