ABSTRACTDisparities in relational stressors highlight the need to understand how older African Americans establish enduring romantic relationships. The current study examined the association between religious-based romantic relationships and communal coping among married and cohabiting older African American couples. Participants were 194 African American couples wherein both partners were at least 50 years of age or older. Participants completed measures assessing religion within their relationship and communal coping, and data were evaluated using the Actor Partner Interdependence Model. Men’s religious-based relational views were associated with their own communal coping and the communal coping of their female partner. Higher levels of religious-based views among men contributed to more frequent experiences of communal coping in their romantic relationship. There were no significant effects between women’s religious-based relational views in association with either women’s or men’s communal coping. Results indicate that men who perceive their romantic relationship as having religious-based significance may be more likely to engage in communal coping and more likely to benefit from their partner’s communal coping. These findings can be used to inform efforts designed to improve the relational bonds within romantic older African American relationships.KEYWORDS: African Americancopingdyadic datareligiositysanctification Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by the Texas Tech University.
摘要关系压力源的差异突出了了解老年非裔美国人如何建立持久浪漫关系的必要性。目前的研究调查了已婚和同居的非裔美国老年夫妇之间基于宗教的浪漫关系和共同应对之间的关系。参与者是194对非裔美国夫妇,其中双方的年龄至少为50岁或以上。参与者完成了评估宗教在他们的关系和共同应对中的作用的测量,数据使用参与者伴侣相互依赖模型进行评估。男性基于宗教的关系观与他们自己的共同应对以及他们女性伴侣的共同应对有关。男性中基于宗教的观点水平较高,导致他们在恋爱关系中更频繁地经历共同应对。女性基于宗教的关系观与女性或男性的公共应对之间没有显著影响。结果表明,那些认为自己的恋爱关系具有宗教意义的男性更有可能参与集体应对,也更有可能从伴侣的集体应对中获益。这些发现可以用来为改善浪漫的老年非裔美国人关系中的关系纽带提供信息。关键词:非裔美国人;统计数据;宗教;本研究得到了德克萨斯理工大学的支持。

“To err is human, to forgive, divine”: religious doubt, psychological well-being and the moderating role of divine forgiveness “犯错是人,宽恕是神”:宗教怀疑,心理健康和神的宽恕的调节作用

ABSTRACTA significant amount of research to date has been done to study the effects of forgiveness on mental health and well-being, but less research has been conducted on divine forgiveness. The main purpose of the current study is to examine the possible moderating role of divine forgiveness. Drawing on a nationally representative sample of 1,500 older adults, regression results suggest that greater divine forgiveness exacerbated the relationship between high religious doubt and greater depressive symptoms and lower life satisfaction. We did not document similar moderation patterns between religious doubt and forgiveness of others and self-forgiveness. Understanding the impact of divine forgiveness for those experiencing uncertainty in their faith is crucial to gaining a more complete picture of religion’s “dark side, and we hope future research continues to pursue these objectives.KEYWORDS: Depressiondivine forgivenesslife satisfactionreligious doubt Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementThe data that were used in this study are available from the first-listed author upon request.Compliance with Ethical Statement consisting Ethical Approval StatementAll procedures performed in studies involving human participants were in accordance with the ethical standards of the institutional and/or national research committee and with the 1964 Helsinki Declaration and its later amendments or comparable ethical standards.Informed consentAll study participants were required to sign an informed consent statement.Additional informationFundingThis research was support by a grant from the John Templeton Foundation and the United States Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health, National Institute on Aging (Grant RO1 AG009221).
迄今为止,关于宽恕对心理健康和幸福的影响的研究已经做了大量的研究,但关于神圣宽恕的研究却很少。当前研究的主要目的是检验神的宽恕可能起到的调节作用。通过对全国1500名老年人的代表性样本进行分析,回归结果表明,更多的神的宽恕加剧了高度的宗教怀疑与更严重的抑郁症状和更低的生活满意度之间的关系。我们没有发现类似的适度模式存在于宗教怀疑、宽恕他人和自我宽恕之间。理解神的宽恕对那些经历信仰不确定性的人的影响,对于更全面地了解宗教的“阴暗面”至关重要,我们希望未来的研究能继续追求这些目标。关键词:抑郁症神性宽恕生活满意度宗教怀疑披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。数据可用性声明本研究中使用的数据可应要求从列出的第一作者处获得。遵守伦理声明,包括伦理批准声明在涉及人类参与者的研究中执行的所有程序都符合机构和/或国家研究委员会的伦理标准,以及1964年赫尔辛基宣言及其后来的修正案或类似的伦理标准。所有的研究参与者都被要求签署一份知情同意声明。本研究得到了约翰邓普顿基金会、美国卫生与公众服务部、美国国立卫生研究院、美国老龄研究所(grant RO1 AG009221)的资助。

A word from the guest editor: A special issue on soulful aging 客座编辑的一句话:一个关于灵魂衰老的特刊

I led symposia on spirituality and aging last summer at Houston’s Hope and Healing Center and Institute (HHCI), where health professionals deliver mental-health lectures and psycho-social outreach to older persons. Unlike most of the scientific research on late-life wisdom and ripening, I wanted to encourage participants to catch gut feelings that integrated mindfulness, animated heartfelt emotions, and stirred contemplative action in the here and now. Gerontologists, I knew, blazed scientific paths by generating evidence-based reports in the context of positive and productive aging, and/or healthful, successful Saging. As I engaged with HHCI program directors and various audiences of older individuals, however, I discerned that many insights and shadows ascribed to conscious and spiritual aging spiraled into a third component of individuation: with advancing years arose an uncharted, albeit growing and deepening sense of soulful aging along with increasing frailty and intimations of finitude. I wondered whether mapping out the borders and boundaries of “soulful aging” merited further reflections – but not mine alone. Investigating the topic required collaborative assessments by peers willing to risk expressing conscious, inward reflections. I proposed to Jim Ellor, the general editor of the Journal of Religion, Spirituality, and Aging, that we design a special issue on the topic. Three colleagues – Tom Cole, Heike Hartung, and Roberta Maierhofer – helped generate a list of three dozen possible contributors. What follows in this special issue is the first wave of responses.
去年夏天,我在休斯顿的希望和康复中心和研究所(HHCI)主持了一个关于精神和老龄化的专题讨论会,在那里,卫生专业人员为老年人提供心理健康讲座和心理社会拓展服务。与大多数关于晚年智慧和成熟的科学研究不同,我想鼓励参与者抓住直觉,这种直觉结合了正念,激发了发自内心的情感,并在此时此地激起了沉思的行动。我知道,老年学家通过在积极而富有成效的衰老和/或健康而成功的衰老的背景下,生成循证报告,开辟了科学道路。然而,当我与HHCI项目主管和各种老年人听众接触时,我发现许多归因于意识和精神衰老的见解和阴影螺旋进入个性化的第三个组成部分:随着年龄的增长,出现了一种未知的,尽管不断增长和加深的灵魂衰老感,以及越来越多的脆弱和有限的暗示。我想知道绘制“灵魂衰老”的边界和界限是否值得进一步思考——但不仅仅是我一个人。调查这个话题需要同伴们的合作评估,他们愿意冒险表达有意识的、内心的反思。我向《宗教、灵性与衰老》杂志的总编辑吉姆·埃洛提议,我们就这个话题设计一期特刊。三位同事——Tom Cole, Heike Hartung和Roberta Maierhofer——帮助列出了36个可能的贡献者。本期特刊接下来是第一波回应。

Soulful Aging offers an opportunity to explore philosophy/theology’s perspectives the way we grow older. This issue is different from many of those found in this journal for two reasons. First, many of the authors in this issue are themselves older, thus they are speaking with an aging heart of their own. Second, this is philosophy/theology, it is not evidence based. This volume reflects older professionals speaking from the heart. I commend this to your reading.
灵魂衰老提供了一个探索哲学/神学观点的机会,让我们了解衰老的方式。这个问题与本杂志中发现的许多问题不同,原因有两个。首先,这期杂志的许多作者本身都是老年人,因此他们是带着一颗衰老的心在说话。其次,这是哲学/神学,它不是基于证据的。这本书反映了年长的专业人士的心声。我推荐你们读一读。

ABSTRACT The author protests lofty criteria for soulful aging, basing his argument on the centrality of hope, defined as maintaining the balance between presumption and despair. Lofty criteria are presumptuous and a sense of failure to meet them can promote despair. Hope is predicated on reasonable expectations, and challenges inherent in aging call for discerning expectations. One might hope for a “good-enough” life of aging, a criterion that provides ample latitude.
作者反对灵魂衰老的崇高标准,他的论点基于希望的中心地位,定义为保持假设和绝望之间的平衡。崇高的标准是武断的,无法达到这些标准的感觉会导致绝望。希望是建立在合理的期望之上的,而老龄化所带来的挑战要求我们有敏锐的期望。人们可能希望过一种“足够好”的老年生活,这一标准提供了足够的自由度。

ABSTRACT This essay explores the impact of inevitable uncertainty during the aging process and explores the effects of uncertainty on our spiritual experience during our elder years. It offers the role of touchstones as reminders of all that we have loved and posits that as long as we have breath, our deepest desires enfold us in our own spiritual growth. By deepening and broadening our understanding of desire, we can experience our individual spiritual growth as the product of love and compassion.
摘要本文探讨了衰老过程中不可避免的不确定性的影响,并探讨了不确定性对我们晚年精神体验的影响。它提供了试金石的作用,提醒我们所爱的一切,并假设只要我们有呼吸,我们最深的欲望就会在我们自己的精神成长中包围我们。通过加深和拓宽我们对欲望的理解,我们可以体验到我们个人的精神成长是爱和同情的产物。

By deepening and broadening our understanding of desire, we can experience our individual spiritual growth as the product of love and compassion.","PeriodicalId":44539,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Religion Spirituality & Aging","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87439383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
