HAYATIN SON DÖNEMİNDE DİNİ MÜZİK ve SAĞLIK: BOYLAMSAL BİR ARAŞTIRMA

Dini müzik dinlemek çoğu kez dini hayatın önemli bir parçasıdır. Ancak bu konuda çok az deneysel araştırma bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, dini müziğin zamanla sağlık durumundaki değişimle bir şekilde ilişkili olabildiğini belirten kavramsal bir modeli analiz etmektir. Bu model aşağıdaki esas ilişkileri içermektedir: (a) Dini törenlere katılan bireyler dini müziğe çoğu zaman daha güçlü duygusal tepkiler verirler, (b) dini müzikle daha çok duygusal olarak ilgilenen bireylerin diğer insanlara karşı daha samimi bağlanma duygusu hissetme ihtimalleri yüksektir, (c) kendilerini diğerlerine sıkıca bağlı hisseden insanlar gelecek hakkında daha ümitlidirler ve (d) ümit düzeyi yüksek bireylerin zamanla sağlık durumlarını olumlu görme olasılıkları yüksektir. Elde edilen veriler bu ilişkilerin her birisini desteklemektedir. Bulgularda ırka dayalı anlamlı değişimler de gözlemlenmiştir

RELIGIOUS MUSIC and HEALTH in LATE LIFE: a LONGITUDINAL INVESTIGATION

Listening to religious music is often an important part of religious life. Yet there has been little empirical research on it. The purpose of this study is to test a conceptual model that specifies one way in which religious music may be associated with change in health over time. This model contains the following core relationships: (a) People who attend worship services more often will have stronger emotional reactions to religious music, (b) individuals who are more emotionally involved in religious music will be more likely to feel a close sense of connectedness with other people, (c) people who feel more closely connected with others will be more hopeful about the future, and (d) individuals who feel more hopeful will be more likely to rate their health favorably over time. The data provide support for each of these relationships. Significant variations by race were also observed in the findings
