“…In an era of scant medical resources, such investigation will be important. Many health providers are neither religious nor trained to respond to spiritual concerns of clients (Gallup, 1985;Peterson & Roy, 1985;Sherril & Larson, 1987). This type of study will facilitate their understanding of the role of the spiritual aspect in rehabilitation and spiritual coping of elderly patients, which will improve health education.…”

“…Religiosity is defined as an individual belief in a god and a commitment to act according to the principles believed to be set by that god (Weaver & Agle, 2002), which provides a sense of purpose for individuals (Petersen & Roy, 1985) and defines ideals for life (Shyan Fam, Waller, & Zafer Erdogan, 2004). …”

The Islamic brand is closely linked to the faith, but the significant role of religiosity is sometimes overlooked. The current study will incorporate the issue in the analysis. The point in question is whether there is a significant influence of religiosity on Islamic brand purchase intention. The purpose of this paper is to examine the effect of religiosity on Islamic brand purchase intention as compared with the effect of product involvement and value consciousness. To investigate the relationship between the variables: religiosity, value consciousness, and product involvement, an explanatory research design was employed that involved an online survey of 176 Muslim women. The final questionnaire was made up of 30 items that consisted of the measures for product involvement (10 items), value consciousness (7 items), religiosity (10 items), and purchase intention (3 items). Based on a study of Indonesian consumers in the context of toiletry product purchases, the study found that religiosity and product involvement have no significant influence on Islamic brand purchase intention. Meanwhile, it is only value consciousness that has positive and significant influences on Islamic brand purchase intention.

“…The first cognitive-behavioural hypothesis is based on theoretical perspectives of Peterson and Roy (1985) and McGuire (1981) who suggest religiosity provides an interpretative framework that allows the individuals to make sense of their existence and contributes to an individual's self-perception, their own importance within the world, and the meaning and purpose behind life events (James & Wells, 2003). The second cognitivebehavioural mechanism is religious behaviours that contribute to self-regulation, or metacognitions, by reducing self-focus, worry, and stress, and therefore, lead to better subjective well-being.…”

The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between a model of prayer and a measure of subjective well-being within the context of a cognitive-behavioural framework. A community sample of 173 (77 males and 96 females) UK adults completed measures of prayer activity and the General Health Questionnaire-28. The present findings suggest that meditative prayer, frequency of prayer, and prayer experience account for unique variance (among other measures of prayer) in a general measure of subjective well-being. The results demonstrate the potential usefulness of a cognitive-behavioural framework to help better understand the relationship between prayer and subjective well-being Prayer and subjective well-being . . .3
