We sought to evaluate the religious coping styles of adolescents during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and its restrictions. The study was conducted online during the 2020 academic year among students in three randomly selected high schools in a city center located in Eastern Turkey. The students studying in the chosen high schools who agreed to participate were included in the study (n = 514). We found that most adolescents were anxious, had been affected in terms of health and life satisfaction, and felt sad due to isolation. Almost all subjects attached importance to their religious beliefs. The adolescents' mean Religious Coping Scale score was 2.23 ± 0.50, their mean Positive Religious Coping subscale score was 2.91 ± 0.73, and their mean Negative Religious Coping subscale score was 1.54 ± 0.52. Specifically, male adolescents of ages 15-17 whose incomes were less than their expenditures and who lived in a broken family had the highest level of negative religious coping. In light of these findings, adolescents can be supported by teaching them to develop positive religious coping styles during the COVID-19 pandemic.
我们旨在评估青少年在 2019 年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行及其限制期间的宗教应对方式。这项研究于 2020 学年在土耳其东部一个城市中心的三所随机挑选的高中的学生中在线进行。同意参与的选定高中的学生被纳入研究（n=514）。我们发现，大多数青少年感到焦虑，健康和生活满意度受到影响，并且由于隔离而感到悲伤。几乎所有的研究对象都重视他们的宗教信仰。青少年的宗教应对量表平均得分为 2.23±0.50，其积极宗教应对分量表平均得分为 2.91±0.73，消极宗教应对分量表平均得分为 1.54±0.52。具体来说，收入低于支出、来自单亲家庭的 15-17 岁男性青少年的消极宗教应对程度最高。鉴于这些发现，在 COVID-19 大流行期间，青少年可以通过教授他们培养积极的宗教应对方式来获得支持。
