520 |a The aim of the present work was to test for an association between religiosity and happiness. One hundred and one undergraduate students completed the Francis Scale of Attitude Towards Christianity, the Depression-Happiness Scale (DHS), the Oxford Happiness Inventory (OHI), the Purpose in Life Test (PIL), and the Index of Self-Actualisation (ISA). It was found that higher scores on the Francis Scale were associated with higher scores on the DHS, the OHI, the PIL, and the ISA, providing evidence for a positive association between religiosity and these facets of subjective well-being. However, partial correlations suggested that the association between religiosity and happiness is a function of purpose in life.
