Abstract: (1028 Views)
Background and Objectives: Religiosity is one of the constructs that has been recently
considered in the field of positive psychology as it can play a significant role as an effective factor
in preventing disorders and maintaining mental health. The aim of this study is to investigate the
mediating role of religiosity in the relationship between hope and resilience among the students.
Methods: The research method is descriptive-correlational and the population is students
of Qom Islamic Azad University selected according to Morgan Index from among 3750
persons through accessible simple random sampling. To collect data, connor and davidson
resilience scale (CD-RIS-25), Snyder Hope Questionnaire and Gluck and Stark Religiosity
Scale were used and data were analyzed using AMOS and SPSS software, v. 19 through
Pearson Coefficient Correlation, Multiple Regression and Path analysis.
Results: The coefficient correlation between the hope parameters (factorial and strategic
thinking) and religiosity and resilience has been positive at the alpha level of 0.01 (P<0.01).
Based on the results of Path analysis, religiosity parameters (factorial and strategic thinking) have
direct and indirect positive effect on resilience. Too, the correlation between hope and religiosity
has been positive and meaningful at the Alpha level of 0.01(P<0.01) The correlation between the
hope and religiosity is also positive and significant at the alpha level of 0.01 (P<0.01).
Conclusion: It is concluded that enhancement of hope affects resilience. Moreover, if the subjects
experience higher level of religiosity their resilience and hope are, accordingly, enhanced.
