Abstract

ABSTRACT Individuals vary in how much exploration and commitment they invest in their identities, which results in different identity “statuses” across a population. Although the majority of Filipinos in Canada identify as Christian, how they each formed their religious identity status may be different, which would be important to understand given the strong relation between mental health and religiosity. Filipino Canadian youth (N = 181) aged 14 to 25 completed online questionnaires about their religious identity status, religiosity, and mental health. A cluster analysis was conducted on youth’s engagement with religious identity formation processes, and results revealed five religious identity statuses: Internalized, Ruminative Moratorium, Undifferentiated, Foreclosed, and Indifferent. Filipino youth with different religious identity statuses had distinct religious experiences and endorsed different levels of mental health. The study highlights the diverse religious experiences in a religiously homogeneous ethnic group which may have implications for mental health.
菲裔加拿大青年的宗教认同形成:探讨宗教虔诚与心理健康的聚类差异
摘要个体在身份上投入的探索和承诺程度各不相同,这导致了不同人群的身份“状态”不同。尽管加拿大的大多数菲律宾人都认为自己是基督徒,但他们各自是如何形成宗教身份的可能会有所不同,考虑到心理健康与宗教信仰之间的密切关系,理解这一点很重要。14至25岁的菲律宾裔加拿大青年(N=181)完成了关于其宗教身份状况、宗教信仰和心理健康的在线问卷调查。对青年参与宗教身份形成过程进行了聚类分析,结果揭示了五种宗教身份状态:内化、沉思暂停、未分化、封闭和冷漠。具有不同宗教身份的菲律宾青年有不同的宗教经历,支持不同程度的心理健康。这项研究强调了一个宗教同质的种族群体的不同宗教经历,这可能对心理健康有影响。
