Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop and test a conceptual model that assesses the following theoretical linkages: (1) people who go to church more often tend to receive more spiritual support from fellow church members (i.e., encouragement to adopt religious teachings and principles); (2) individuals who get more frequent spiritual support are more likely to be humble; and (3) people with greater humility tend to rate their health more favorably. The data come from the third wave of a nationwide longitudinal survey of older adults. The data provide support for each of the conceptual linkages identified above.

  • Of the 37 methodologically most rigorous studies, 21 (57%) reported significant positive relationships between R/S and SRH.

    “Of the 37 methodologically most rigorous studies, 21 (57%) reported significant positive relationships between R/S and SRH [503, 508–527], whereas three (8%) found the opposite [528–530].”

    From Religion, Spirituality, and Health: The Research and Clinical Implications (2012) · cites this paper as [515]

    The Results (§3.2; page unavailable) report a significant positive indirect association between spiritual support and self-rated health through humility. But the direct association is significantly negative and the total association is not significant, so this study does not straightforwardly report the positive relationship for which it is cited. The paper also does not establish the citing sentence’s count of 21 of 37 studies. (LLM, conf=0.82)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
