研究結果發現:
一、多數的宗教歸屬類別在快樂感或抗壓性上高於自認為無宗教者。
二、宗教團體活動的確有助於提升個體的快樂感及抗壓性。
三、宗教信仰對抗壓性的提升會比在快樂感方面來得多。
四、就虔誠度這一個變項的作用來說,在快樂感方面中間及中間偏不虔誠的人最不快樂;在抗壓性方面越虔誠的人抗壓性越高。
五、無宗教者相較其他宗教徒更為不快樂,但最不快樂的是信仰上不那麼確定的人:虔誠度居中及中間偏不虔誠的人。
This study explores the influences of different religious behaviors and attitudes of non-religious participants and religious participants on happiness and stress resilience in the modern society of rationalization. The data used was collected by the research project “Taiwan Social Change Survey (TSCS)” 2018.
The statistical method is mainly based on multiple regression models to examine the effects of different variables on the happiness and stress resilience of respondents for variables such as “religious beliefs,” “group religious activity,” “prayer” and “levels of religiosity,” We found that: (1) Most religious participants are happier and have more stress resilience than non-religious participants. (2) group religious activity has a positive relationship with happiness and stress resilience. (3) Religious belief will improve stress resilience much more than happiness. (4) In terms of happiness, the most unhappy people are those who are middle levels(3、4) of religiosity; the more strongly religious have better stress resilience. (5) The non-religious participants are more unhappy than other religious participants, but the most unhappy are those who are less certain in their beliefs: those who are at middle levels(3、4) of religiosity.
