Validation, Factor Structure and Measurement Invariance of the Duke University Religion Index Among Puerto Rican Adults.
Article 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. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Religiosity is a determinant of human flourishing and a protective/risk factor on health. In recent years the DUREL has been one of the most used measures in studies of religion and health worldwide. This scale has five items to assess three domains: organizational religiosity (item 1), non-organizational religiosity (item 2), and intrinsic/subjective religiosity (items 3, 4 and 5). Through an online survey, we examined the psychometric properties, factor structure and measurement invariance of the Duke University Religion Index among 411 Spanish-speaking Puerto Rican adults. We found alpha and omega reliability coefficients of .91. In confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) with robust maximum likelihood estimation, best-fit models were those with three factors. We observed adequate convergent/discriminant validity via CFA-related statistics. Using multigroup CFA, the DUREL was gender-invariant. Correlations with external criteria supported its concurrent validity. Our findings support DUREL's utility as a religiosity measure for Puerto Ricans.
