Studies have long been concentrated on the negatives which old age brings overlooking the positive side of becoming old. Hence, this research enhances the knowledge of the field called Positive Aging. The present research aimed to find the difference between elderly from different culture, living arrangements, and gender and age cohorts on level of hope. The tool used for study was The Adult Trait Hope Scale (Snyder & Harris et al., 1991). The total sample size under study was 179 elderly. The sample was classified on the basis of culture (rural and urban), living arrangements (living with families, living with old age homes & those living only with spouse), gender (males & females) and age cohorts (65-75 years & 75 above years). Results showed for the group of urban aged, the urban elderly living with spouse had a higher score on Hope. In case of gender differences, the mean showed that males were higher on levels of Hope in comparison to females. For the differences in age cohorts, Hope, showed the higher mean values for the age group of 65-75 years in comparison to elderly who are 75 years and above.Keywords
