“…The religious coping mechanism may be particularly important for many individuals from Latinx culture, where religion is considered a central part of the culture (Mausbach, Coon, Cardenas, & Thompson, 2003).

Religious and spiritual beliefs have been found to be critical means of coping that decrease depressive symptoms among Puerto Rican women with HIV/AIDS (Simoni & Ortiz, 2003) and help HIV prevention efforts among Puerto Rican women with severe mental illness (Loue & Sajatovic, 2006).…”

“…In the FBO literature, for instance, there are plenty of examples of addiction treatment programs that have an element of faith. These programs sometimes show positive outcomes in addictions (e.g., Hodge 2000;Hodge and Pittman 2003;Hansen 2004). Of course, the most salient example of this kind of non-spiritual outcome of an otherwise spiritual program in popular culture is Alcoholics Anonymous, and now Narcotics Anonymous, where belief in a higher power is used as an anchor to recovery from addictions-it is the first step.…”
