Definition Of

The psychology of forgiveness originated from the creative and important work on the development of justice initiated by Piaget in 1932 and extended by Kohlberg in 1969. The scientific study of forgiveness is quite new, having emerged in print in 1989, with an examination of the developmental progression in children’s, adolescents’, and adults’ thinking about the necessary conditions for them to offer forgiveness to another person. In this chapter, the authors first review the definition of forgiveness, followed by this early cognitive work. They then turn to a discussion of the measurement of forgiveness correlates of forgiveness. The practical application of this construct is seen in the development of forgiveness therapy and forgiveness education, which the authors discuss in light of the empirical findings. Future directions for forgiveness studies are considered.

Willingness To Forgive

This study examined the effects of a forgiveness education intervention on the psychological wellbeing of clergy and their ability to apply interpersonal forgiveness skills in their personal lives and in professional conflict situations depicted in hypothetical interpersonal conflict vignettes. A sample of 32 clergy from eleven different denominations was randomly assigned to either an experimental or control group. Significant results were found between the groups in regards to the participants' willingness to forgive and the use of forgiveness strategies for resolving the interpersonal conflict situations.
