在这项研究中，我们检验了一个假设，即宗教信仰，特别是关于与上帝有关系的信仰，对预测（较低水平）孤独的贡献超过了感知到的可用（人际）社会支持所提供的预测。在几个宗教变量中观察到显著的宗教与性别相互作用对孤独的预测。后续分析表明，我们的假设在女性身上得到了支持，但对男性来说，宗教信仰要么与孤独无关，要么与孤独呈正相关。
In this study we examined the hypothesis that religious beliefs, and particularly beliefs about having a relationship with God, contribute to the prediction of (lower levels of) loneliness above and beyond the prediction afforded by perceived available (interpersonal) social support. Significant religion x sex interactions in the prediction of loneliness were observed for several religion variables. Follow-up analyses suggested that our hypothesis was supported with respect to women, but that, for men, religiousness was either unrelated to or positively related to loneliness.
