Abstract
The present study examined the moderating effects of Islamic religiosity on the relationship between racial-ethnic discrimination, religious prejudice, environmental prejudice, religious coping, perceived stress, and Islam’s effect on well-being. Through Amazon’s Mechanical Turk, 875 participants met screening requirements and completed the online survey. Participants completed measures of discrimination (i.e., racial-ethnic, religious prejudice, and environmental prejudice), religious coping (i.e., positive religious coping and negative religious coping), religiosity, well-being, and perceived stress. Analysis revealed that positive and negative religious coping mediated the relationship between the three forms of discrimination and perceived stress. However, positive religious coping mediated the relationship between the three forms of discrimination and Islam’s effect on well-being, and negative religious coping only mediated the relationship between religious prejudice and Islam’s effect on well-being. Religiosity was found to significantly moderate the relationship between positive religious coping and perceived stress and Islam’s effect on well-being. Keywords: Islamic religiosity, religious discrimination, religious coping, well-being, perceived stress
