This article examines the published literature on religion, age, and health, and how these variables relate to job satisfaction and working into advanced ages. This review summarizes findings from the following databases: EBSCOhost; Web of Science; PubMed; and Google Scholar. Search terms included various forms of "aging/elderly worker or workforce, workplace religiosity, religion/spirituality and health, and religious coping." Ninety-two articles employing a variety of methods were reviewed in detail. If plausible links between religious coping methods and working past age 67 can be posited, then a future study of potential predictive capabilities may be warranted.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
