• Spiritual Struggles and Psychological Distress: Is There a Dark Side of Religion? (2010, background): “Within the past decade, an empirical literature on correlates and sequelae of spiritual struggles has flourished (Exline and Rose 2005; Pargament et al. 2005).”
• The Religious and Spiritual Struggles Scale: Development and initial validation (2014, background): “Interpersonal struggle (Exline, 2013; Exline & Rose, 2013; Pargament et al., 2005) involves negative experiences with religious people or institutions or conflict with others around religious issues.”
• Predictors of spiritual struggles: an exploratory study (2013, background): “Admittedly, some people tend to struggle with religious issues more chronically than others (see Nielsen, 1998); however, such spiritual struggles still seem to be more state-oriented than trait-oriented (Pargament et al., 2005; Roesch & Ano, 2003).”
• The Correlates of Spiritual Struggle during the College Years (2008, background): “Individuals with weak spiritual orientations may come to a point of disequilibrium when life events are overwhelming (Pargament et al., 2005).”
• The role of religiousness in anxiety, depression, and happiness in a Jewish community sample: A preliminary investigation (2009, background): “Of the three most common Judeo-Christian spiritual struggles, interpersonal, intrapsychic, and Divine (Pargament et al., 2005), mistrust in God appears most connected to Divine spiritual struggles, which reflect tension between the individual and God.”
• The Brief RCOPE: Current psychometric status of a short measure of religious coping. (2011, unknown): “For example, although Pargament, Murray-Swank, Magyar, and Ano [56] and Exline and Rose [57] articulated three types of religious struggle (divine, intrapsychic, interpersonal), the NRC focuses mostly on divine types of struggle.”
