Studies have demonstrated the positive impacts of both parent and adolescent religiosity on adolescent outcomes; however, the relationships among these variable have not been studied. Our study was conducted to assess whether adolescent religiosity mediates the relationship between parent religiosity and adolescent emotional and behavioral health outcomes. A sample of 491 late adolescents ages 18-22 completed surveys that assessed their parents' religious practices, their own religious practices, deviant behaviors, and internalizing behaviors. Findings suggest that adolescent religiosity mediates the relationship between parents' religiosity and adolescent health outcomes such as drug and alcohol use and depression.
研究表明，父母和青少年的宗教信仰对青少年的成长结果都有积极影响；然而，这些变量之间的关系尚未得到研究。我们开展这项研究是为了评估青少年的宗教信仰是否在父母的宗教信仰与青少年的情绪和行为健康结果之间起中介作用。491名年龄在18至22岁之间的大龄青少年参与了抽样调查，调查内容包括他们父母的宗教活动、他们自己的宗教活动、越轨行为和内化行为。研究结果表明，青少年的宗教信仰在父母的宗教信仰与青少年健康结果（如药物和酒精使用以及抑郁）之间起中介作用。
