This study examines the mediation effects of forgiveness and gratitude in the association between Korean Christian young adults' religiosity and post-traumatic growth. The participants are 296 Christian young adults in Korea. We hypothesize that the association between young Christian young adults' religiosity and post-traumatic growth is mediated by forgiveness and gratitude. The hypothesized model is tested by structural equation modeling. Results confirm that the religiosity of Christian young adults affects post-traumatic growth through forgiveness and gratitude. Adding a direct path from religiosity to post-traumatic growth significantly improved the model fit, which suggests partial mediation of forgiveness and gratitude in the association between religiosity and post-traumatic growth.
本研究考察了宽恕和感激在韩国基督教青年成年人宗教信仰与创伤后成长之间的关联中的中介作用。参与者为 296 名韩国基督教青年成年人。我们假设,基督教青年成年人的宗教信仰与创伤后成长之间的关联是通过宽恕和感激来调节的。通过结构方程模型检验了假设模型。结果证实,基督教青年成年人的宗教信仰通过宽恕和感激影响创伤后成长。在宗教信仰与创伤后成长之间增加一条从宗教信仰到创伤后成长的直接路径,显著改善了模型拟合度,这表明宽恕和感激在宗教信仰与创伤后成长之间的关联中起部分中介作用。
