Religiosity, Psychological Distress, and Well-Being: Evaluating Familial Confounding With Multicohort Sibling Data

Markus Jokela

Summary: Several studies have found an association between religiosity and better mental health, but these studies have not fully addressed the issue of confounding. This study examined the association between religiosity and mental health, taking into account familial factors and siblings' shared genetics. The results showed that religious attendance was associated with lower psychological distress and higher well-being. However, these associations were attenuated when considering familial factors, suggesting that previous studies may have overestimated the association between religiosity and mental health.
