Abstract

Stress resilience is the ability to bounce back from stress. Religious vocal chanting has been known to have a positive effect on stress. This study explored the impact of Taizé prayer as a religious vocal chanting on stress reduction and stress resilience improvement. A nonrandomized controlled trial was conducted. Thirty-six Christian university students in Indonesia were recruited and included in the intervention and control groups without randomization. Subjects in the intervention group performed 30-min Taizé prayer for 28 days. The stress level was examined using the Perceived Stress Scale, and stress resilience was examined using the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale-25. Differences within groups were analyzed using a paired t-test, while differences between groups were analyzed using an independent t-test. The intervention group showed a significant improvement in stress resilience (p < 0.01), while the control group did not experience any change (p = 0.80). Further, the stress scores decreased in the intervention group (p = 0.03), whereas no significant change was observed in the control group (p = 0.22). Changes in stress resilience were significantly higher in the intervention group than in the control group (p = 0.01), while changes in stress scores did not differ significantly between the two groups (p = 0.33). Taizé prayer might have positive effects on stress and stress resilience in young adulthood.

泰泽祈祷对非临床环境中年轻人压力和压力复原力的影响
抗压能力是指从压力中反弹的能力。众所周知,宗教唱诵对压力有积极影响。本研究探讨了泰泽祈祷作为一种宗教唱诵对减轻压力和提高抗压能力的影响。研究进行了一项非随机对照试验。研究人员在印度尼西亚招募了 36 名基督教大学生,将他们随机分为干预组和对照组。干预组的受试者进行了为期 28 天、每次 30 分钟的泰泽祈祷。采用感知压力量表(Perceived Stress Scale)检测受试者的压力水平,采用康纳-戴维森复原力量表-25(Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale-25)检测受试者的压力复原力。组内差异采用配对 t 检验,组间差异采用独立 t 检验。干预组的抗压能力明显提高(p <0.01),而对照组没有任何变化(p = 0.80)。此外,干预组的压力得分有所下降(p = 0.03),而对照组则无明显变化(p = 0.22)。干预组的压力复原力变化明显高于对照组(p = 0.01),而两组的压力得分变化没有明显差异(p = 0.33)。泰泽祈祷可能会对青年期的压力和压力复原力产生积极影响。

期刊介绍: Pastoral Psychology, founded in 1950, is one of the most well-established and respected journals in the field of psychology and religion/spirituality. Pastoral Psychology is an international forum that publishes scholarly, peer-reviewed original articles that address varied aspects of religion and spirituality from physical, human science, and interfaith perspectives. Historically, the word “pastoral” has referred to the care of individuals, families, and communities. Today, we additionally consider “pastoral” in terms of lived experience as it relates to embodiment, the social-political, economic, spiritual, and environmental dimensions of life. All theoretical perspectives are welcome, as Pastoral Psychology regularly publishes articles from a variety of schools of thought, including, but not limited to, psychoanalytic and other dynamic psychologies, cognitive psychologies, experimental and empirical psychologies, humanistic psychology, transpersonal psychology, and cultural psychology. Insights from existential perspectives, intersectional theories, philosophical and theological theories, gender and queer studies, sociology, anthropology, public mental health, and cultural and empirical studies are welcome. Theoretical contributions that have direct or indirect relevance for practice, broadly construed, are especially desirable, as our intended audience includes not only academics and scholars in religion and science, but also religious and spiritual leaders, as well as caregivers, chaplains, social workers, counselors/therapists, clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, and persons interested in matters of religion/spirituality and psychology. Pastoral Psychology welcomes scholarship and reflection from all religious and spiritual traditions. In addition to scholarly research papers, the journal welcomes thoughtful essays on a wide range of issues and various genres of writing, including book reviews and film reviews. The community of scholars represented in its pages has demonstrated that the life challenges the journal seeks to address are universally shared, yet also reflect individual social, cultural, and religious locations. The journal, therefore, welcomes submissions from scholars from around the world.
