Correlates of Religious Service Attendance and Contact With Religious Leaders Among Persons With Co-Occurring Serious Mental Illness and Type 2 Diabetes
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence and correlates of religious participation among persons with co-occurring serious mental illness and type 2 diabetes. Among 201 outpatients, 53% attended religious services, 36% had regular contact with a religious leader, and 15% received assistance from a religious leader. Persons with schizophrenia and African Americans were more likely to attend services and have contact with religious leaders. Both attendance at religious services and regular contact with a religious leader were linked to higher quality of life in selected domains, but not associated with global health ratings or glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels. Results indicate that there are important diagnostic and racial differences in religious participation, and that religious participation may be a resilience factor that supports enhanced quality of life for persons with serious mental illness and diabetes.

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.
