Identifier	Thesis 2018
Author	Tan, Sheila M.
Title	The Associations amongst and between Religiosity, Spirituality, Stress, and Facets of Well-Being amongst Malaysians
Publisher	Central Connecticut State University
Date	2009
Resource Type	Master's Thesis
Notes	While there is considerable literature indicating associations amongst and between religiosity, spirituality, and facets of well-being, it is still unclear as to which dimensions of religiosity and spirituality better predict well-being. The current study examined one dimension of religiosity and one dimension of spirituality, specifically objective religiosity and spiritual transcendence, and their associations with facets of well-being (i.e., satisfaction with life, affect, and depressive symptoms) amongst Malaysians. This study addressed the gaps in the literature by evaluating the predictive effects of the components of religiosity and spirituality on well-being. The present study also examined if spiritual transcendence moderated the relationship between perceived stress and depressive symptoms, suggesting that these effects can possibly operate as a stress buffer. Participants of this study were comprised of Malaysians from various religious backgrounds (i.e., Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, or Christians). Participants completed a packet of questionnaires which included a satisfaction with life measure, a depressive symptoms measure, an affect measure, a perceived stress measure, a religiosity measure, and a spirituality measure. The major findings of the present study include: 1) a greater sense of spiritual transcendence was negatively related to depressive symptoms, negative affect, and perceived stress; 2) perceived stress was positively related to depressive symptoms and negative affect and negatively related to positive affect and satisfaction with life; and 3) spiritual transcendence was a stronger predictor of depressive symptoms compared to objective religiosity.
