The relationship between atheism and health is poorly understood within the Religion/Spirituality-health literature. While the extant literature promotes the idea that Attendance, Prayer, and Religiosity are connected to positive health outcomes, these relationships have not been established when controlling for whether a person is an atheist. Data from the 2008-2012 American General Social Survey (n = 3210) were used to investigate this relationship. Results indicated that atheists experienced Religiosity more negatively than non-atheists. Additionally, results demonstrated that non-belief in God was not related to better or worse perceived global health, suggesting that belief in God is not inherently linked to better reported health.
在宗教/灵性与健康的文献中，无神论与健康之间的关系尚未得到充分理解。虽然现有文献提出参加宗教活动、祈祷和宗教虔诚度与积极的健康结果相关，但在控制一个人是否为无神论者的情况下，这些关系尚未得到证实。利用2008 - 2012年美国综合社会调查（样本量n = 3210）的数据来研究这种关系。结果表明，与非无神论者相比，无神论者对宗教虔诚度的体验更为消极。此外，结果显示，对上帝的不信与对整体健康状况的好坏感知并无关联，这表明对上帝的信仰并非本质上与报告的更好健康状况相关联。
