The Roles of Spiritual Fortitude and Religious Orientation in Relationship Quality for Interfaith Couples
Previous research has demonstrated that interfaith couples often face challenges related to religious disagreements, which is associated with a decrease in relationship quality. Research also indicates that religious orientation and spiritual fortitude might be useful personal resources for individuals navigating stressful life events, particularly when they cause religious or spiritual strain. Although prior work has indicated that religious ori…
Too much of a good thing
Recent studies have suggested that intellectual humility (IH) might facilitate (a) better learning outcomes, (b) more scientific mindedness, and (c) better peer and professional relationships. However, recent philosophical work has raised concerns that too much IH might lead to intellectual servility (IS), and thus might be vicious (albeit not blameworthy) rather than virtuous. We define IS as a disposition to over-own one’s intellectual limitati…
Stepping Outside the Echo Chamber
In recent years, an upsurge of polarization has been a salient feature of political discourse in America. A small but growing body of research has examined the potential relevance of intellectual humility (IH) to political polarization. In the present investigation, we extend this work to political myside bias, testing the hypothesis that IH is associated with less bias in two community samples ( N 1 = 498; N 2 = 477). In line with our expectatio…
Resource loss and mental health during Covid ‐19
Across the globe, COVID‐19 has disproportionately affected the physical and mental health of several vulnerable groups. In a series of two cross‐sectional studies conducted April to July 2020, we examined its acute mental health effects on two vulnerable U.S. community samples—home‐bound older adults who were at or below the poverty line (Study 1, N = 293, M age = 76.94, SD = 8.64; 75.1% female, 67.9% Black) and adults with chronic disease (Study…
The role of spiritual fortitude in meaning and mental health symptoms following a natural disaster
Perceived and actual posttraumatic growth in religiousness and spirituality following disasters
OBJECTIVE: Religious/spiritual (R/S) growth is a core domain of posttraumatic growth (PTG). However, research on R/S growth following disasters has over-relied on retrospective self-reports of growth. We therefore examined longitudinal change in religiousness/spirituality following two disasters. METHOD: Religious survivors of Hurricanes Harvey (Study 1) and Irma (Study 2) completed measures of perceived R/S PTG, general religiousness/spiritualit…
Spiritually Oriented Expressive Writing and Promoting Positive Outcomes After a Natural Disaster
Natural disasters can disrupt and challenge survivors’ core belief systems, leading to negative health consequences. People often rely on religion/spirituality to help them cope and make meaning, but to date very few studies have specifically focused on exploring spiritually oriented expressive writing interventions with natural disaster survivors. Therefore, the current longitudinal, mixed-methods study utilized an experimental design with rando…
Discrimination comes in layers
Findings highlight how the combination of racial discrimination dimensions influence Multiracial people's mental health and emphasize the need to address unique forms of discrimination specific to Multiracial people. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved
Religious Homogamy Affects the Connections of Personality and Marriage Qualities to Unforgiving Motives
In Ghana, collectivism holds people together in marital relationships, even if partners are religiously different. Married partners still hurt, betray, or offend each other and might develop avoidance or vengeful (i.e., unforgiving) motives. We investigated whether religious homogamy moderated connections of personality and marriage variables to unforgiving motives. Heterosexual married couples (N = 176 heterosexual married couples; N = 352 indiv…
Conserving resources during chronic disaster
This study extends research on DRL and coping to the context of chronic disasters. A nuanced treatment of resource loss (accounting for specific item wordings) suggests that although DRL in general may influence negative R/S coping, only some types of resource loss (energetic) from an ongoing-chronic disaster affect both one's current meaning-focused coping and trauma symptoms. In contrast to negative R/S coping behaviors (e.g., doubt), positive …
Integrating clients’ religion and spirituality within psychotherapy
Some religious or spiritual (R/S) clients seek psychotherapy that integrates R/S values, while others may be reticent to disclose R/S‐related aspects of struggles in a presumably secular setting. We meta‐analyzed 97 outcome studies ( N = 7,181) examining the efficacy of tailoring treatment to patients’ R/S beliefs and values. We compared the effectiveness of R/S‐tailored psychotherapy with no‐treatment controls, alternate secular treatments, and …
