背景因素影响宗教信仰和幸福感之间的关系，性别和居住国被认为是显着的调节因素。这项研究使用了来自世界各地讲土耳其语的穆斯林的问卷数据，其中包括50%的美国人，20%的欧洲人和15%的土耳其人。该研究调查了居住国背景下宗教信仰与幸福感之间的关系。国家的幸福指数（来自世界幸福报告），个人的性别和个人的宗教信仰水平，由杜克大学宗教指数测量，预计将相互作用，以解释个人幸福的变化。国家幸福感对个人幸福感有主效应，没有调节效应。性别调节了宗教信仰和个人幸福之间的关系，女性没有相关性，男性则有适度的正相关性。在土耳其，说土耳其语的穆斯林妇女比男人幸福，而在其他国家，幸福感与男人相同。
Contextual factors influence the relationship between religiosity and happiness, with sex and country of residence identified as salient moderators. This study used questionnaire data from Turkish speaking Muslims residing in different parts of the world, including 50% in the United States, 20% in Europe, and 15% in Turkey. The study investigated the relationship between religiosity and happiness in the context of the residence country. The happiness score of the country (from the World Happiness Report), the individual's sex, and personal religiosity levels, measured by the Duke University Religion Index were expected to interact to explain the variation in individual happiness. A main effect of country happiness on individual happiness was found, with no moderation effects. Sex moderated the relationship between religiosity and individual happiness, with no correlation for women and a moderate, positive correlation for men. Turkish speaking Muslim women were happier than men in Turkey, while happy at the same level with men in other countries.
