- Title
Mental Health, Religious Belief, and “The Terrifying Question”.
- Authors
Marks, Loren D.
- Abstract
The article comments on the relationship between religion and mental health. According to the author that the connection between the religion and mental health has attracted the attention of at least some within the social science mainstream. Sociologist Rodney Stark speculates that religious commitment did significantly correlate with psychopathology. The pioneering religion and heath researcher Jeff Levin's studies suggests that this issue was still a nascent and professionally dangerous area of research.
