This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of psychological status and its relationship with religious activities among young Muslims in Yogyakarta province, Indonesia, during the COVID-19 pandemic. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Our cross-sectional study was conducted during the second and third waves of the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia.
