- Abstract:
- Psychological well-being has been linked to higher levels of both physical and mental
health. Evidence suggests that higher levels of religiosity and spirituality are related to
higher levels of psychological well-being. The majority of the research on these
constructs has been conducted on hearing individuals. As a result, very little is known
about how levels of religiosity and spirituality are related to levels of psychological well
being among culturally Deaf adults. This study analyzed the relationship between levels
of religiosity, spirituality, and psychological well-being in the Deaf community. Deaf
adults, ages 18 and up, who use American Sign Language (ASL) as their primary form of
communication were given the Ryff’s Psychological Well-Being Scale and the Spiritual
Well-Being Scale. A hierarchical linear regression was used to analyze the data.
