“…For the diaspora older adults, however, both religiosity outcomes consistently increased with time and were higher than the AIH cohort. This supports the argument that the immigration process per se can have an impact on religious orientation in terms of inclination, orientation, affiliation, and expression (Ivanescu, 2016;Padilla & Phan, 2014;Snyder, 2012). The postulate that "'place/location' as a variable" has a statistically significant impact on religiosity of older immigrants (Park et al, 2012;Roh, 2010;Stroope et al, 2022)and the 'theory of religious effects' (Smith, 2003) is also substantiated.…”

This article reports a longitudinal study comparing religiosity among two cohorts of Indian older adults—those who age in the homeland of India (AIH cohort) and immigrants (to the USA) or diaspora older adults (DOA). Results indicated that AIH and DOA cohorts’ religiosity outcomes were comparable at baseline but there was a statistically significant increase in all outcomes of the DOA cohort at subsequent time points. Women and single older adults in both the cohorts had higher religiosity scores at baseline. Religiosity scores were higher among those in the DOA cohort who migrated following marital disruption (widowhood, divorce) or grandchild birth and lived with adult immigrant children and their families. The immigration process can have an impact on religious orientation of older adults and place is a significant variable impacting religiosity possibly for augmenting the sense of self, acquire social capital and preserve cultural identity in the foreign land.

“…For diaspora older adults, the immigration process per se can also have impact on religious orientation in terms of inclination, orientation, affiliation, and expression (Ivanescu, 2016;Padilla & Phan, 2014;Snyder, 2012). A newly emerging domain of work investigates the effect of place on religiosity of older adults.…”
