PASSAGE
A longitudinal study investigated the relationship between religiosity and health outcomes in an elderly population. The study measured religiosity through self-reported church attendance and the personal importance of faith. It found a positive correlation between higher levels of religiosity and better self-reported health, lower rates of depression, and increased longevity. Researchers suggested that the social support provided by religious communities and the coping mechanisms offered by religious belief might explain these findings.
The study's finding that religious belief provides effective 'coping mechanisms' for life's difficulties aligns with which theorist's view of religion?
