The Mediating Role of Religious Beliefs in the Relationship between Well-Being and Fear of COVID-19
Religion has been one of the social entities that significantly impacted the COVID-19 pandemic. The study aims to examine the relationship between well-being and fear of COVID-19 and to test whether religious beliefs mediate the effect of well-being on fear of COVID-19. The sample comprised 433 participants in Vietnam. The results show that individuals who attend religious services daily, people without chronic disease, and younger adults have higher levels of well-being than others. Additionally, older adults have higher levels of religious beliefs than others. Females are more likely to experience fear of COVID-19 compared to males. The latter shows religious beliefs mediated the effect of well-being on fear of COVID-19. Social workers and clinicians must consider older adults and people with chronic disease as prioritized vulnerable groups for early mental interventions and should be aware of the role of religion in psychological treatment integration
