This study explores whether Maslow's hierarchy of needs and Inglehart's values paradigm underlies associations between prayer frequency and happiness. Responses from a comparative analysis of wave six from the World Values Survey for India (n = 4078), Turkey (n = 1605) and the USA (n = 2232) were used to examine associations between prayer frequency and happiness. Prayer frequency interacted with Maslow's model to associate with happiness in India and Turkey. The self-expression variables entirely supplant prayer and are associated with happiness in the USA. The implications are discussed for generating models that impact happiness.
本研究探讨了马斯洛的需求层次理论和英格尔哈特的价值观范式是否构成了祈祷频率与幸福感之间关联的基础。本研究使用了来自印度(n=4078)、土耳其(n=1605)和美国(n=2232)第六波世界价值观调查的比较分析的回复数据,以检验祈祷频率与幸福感之间的关联。祈祷频率与马斯洛模型相互作用,与印度和土耳其的幸福感相关。自我表达变量完全取代了祈祷,与美国的幸福感相关。本研究讨论了产生影响幸福感的模型的意义。
