A scholarly discourse exists among researchers regarding whether religiosity primarily represents credulity or the capacity for critical thinking. Numerous studies within the realm of psychology, for instance, delve into this inquiry within the framework of risk assessment among both religious adherents and nonbelievers. Nevertheless, there is a notable lack of comprehensive exploration encompassing theological, philosophical, and social safety science perspectives that encapsulate the entirety of religious phenomena. This paper seeks to address this gap by examining various forms of religious thought and activities that contribute to cognitive safety. The analysis scrutinizes the development of such cognitive attitudes and elucidates the manifestation of religiosity in the context of well-being, ultimately informing pastoral programs.

关于宗教信仰主要代表的是轻信还是批判性思维能力，研究人员之间存在着学术讨论。例如，心理学领域的许多研究都在宗教信徒和非信徒的风险评估框架内深入探讨了这一问题。然而，涵盖神学、哲学和社会安全科学视角的综合探索却明显不足，无法囊括宗教现象的全部内容。本文试图通过研究有助于认知安全的各种形式的宗教思想和活动来填补这一空白。分析仔细研究了这种认知态度的发展，并阐明了宗教性在福祉方面的表现，最终为牧师计划提供了参考。

Clergy play an important role in the health of their congregations and communities. Unfortunately, high rates of chronic disease and burnout exist, and health promotion programs have been limited in their ability to change behaviors. This study psychometrically tested the Caring Factor Survey—Caring for Self (CFS-CS), developed to understand self-care among nurses, with clergy. Initially, five experts established face validity of the survey. Ordained Christian clergy actively ministering in the United States were then recruited for a two-phase study. In phase 1, six clergy assessed the content validity of the survey using the Content Validity Index (CVI). In phase 2, 70 clergy completed the CFS-CS, demographic questions, and two Likert scale questions assessing the importance of and their effort to care for themselves daily. Cronbach’s alpha, average inter-item correlations, and exploratory factor analysis were conducted, as were correlations between the survey and the Likert scale items. During phase 1, individual CVI ranged from 1.00 to 0.83 and scale-level CVI was 0.95, indicating that the content of the scale was adequate. During phase 2, one item, Teaching & Learning, did not perform well. When removed, Cronbach’s alpha and the average inter-item correlation were 0.81 and 0.33, respectively. Correlations between the nine-item survey (CFS-CS, Clergy) and the measures of importance and effort towards caring for self were r = 0.50 and 0.68, respectively, p < 0.001 for both. The CFS-CS, Clergy was found to be a valid and reliable measure for future studies to assess self-care beliefs and attitudes of clergy and their impact on clergy health.

神职人员在其教众和社区的健康方面发挥着重要作用。不幸的是，慢性病和职业倦怠的发病率很高，而健康促进计划改变行为的能力有限。本研究对神职人员进行了 "关爱因素调查--关爱自我（CFS-CS）"的心理测试，该调查是为了解护士的自我关爱情况而开发的。最初，由五位专家确定了调查表的表面效度。随后，他们招募了在美国积极传教的基督教神职人员，分两个阶段进行研究。在第 1 阶段，6 名神职人员使用内容效度指数 (CVI) 评估了调查问卷的内容效度。在第 2 阶段，70 名神职人员完成了 CFS-CS、人口统计学问题和两个李克特量表问题，这两个问题评估了日常自我护理的重要性及其努力程度。我们进行了 Cronbach's alpha、平均项目间相关性和探索性因子分析，以及调查和李克特量表项目间的相关性分析。在第 1 阶段，个体 CVI 为 1.00 至 0.83，量表级 CVI 为 0.95，表明量表的内容是充分的。在第 2 阶段，有一个项目 "教学& 学习 "表现不佳。删除该项目后，Cronbach's alpha 和项目间平均相关性分别为 0.81 和 0.33。由九个项目组成的调查表（CFS-CS，教士）与对自我关怀的重要性和努力程度的测量之间的相关性分别为 r = 0.50 和 0.68，两者的 p < 0.001。研究发现，CFS-CS（神职人员）是一种有效、可靠的测量方法，可用于今后评估神职人员自我保健信念和态度及其对神职人员健康影响的研究。
