Summary: | This study examined correlations among religious commitment, perceived religious oppression, self-esteem, depression, and satisfaction with life for 159 women of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS). Results showed a negative association between religious commitment and religious oppression, while religious commitment was positively correlated with satisfaction with life. Perceived religious oppression was negatively correlated with satisfaction with life, and satisfaction with life was negatively correlated with depression. Satisfaction with life did not significantly mediate the relationship between religious commitment and perceived religious oppression. Additional results are provided. Implications related to Latter-day Saint women’s well-being are discussed. |
