A Critical Review on Pargament's Theory of Religious Coping: In the Context of the COVID-19 Pandemic.
Review in Journal of religion and health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Religious coping has a constant association with mental health when dealing with distressing events in life. In this case, the religious coping theory of Pargament can be a theoretical model for mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic. This article aims to investigate how positive religious coping can help us to overcome a negative life event. This theoretical study tried to find positive models of religious coping approaches, develop a concise measurement of these religious coping approaches, and investigate their effects on mental health in difficult situations. We reviewed the psychological impact of the pandemic, specifically negative psychological effects, e.g., fear of getting sick, anxiety, and distress. The article presents an effectual, theoretically suggestive way to assimilate religious aspects into patterns and studies of coping, stressors, and mental health. This paper argues that religious coping can help us to overcome mental stress during a difficult situation.
