Spiritual and religious coping seemed to have a positive impact on well-being and have predominant role in empowering one to cope with life stress. Though spirituality and religion may be associated with guilt and neurosis, it can also stimulate peace, optimism, meaning in suffering, forgiveness, and reconciliation to oneself and others. This study examined the buffering influence of religious and spiritual coping in attaining post-traumatic growth among female young adult victims of child sexual abuse. The study utilized focus group methodology to elicit the participant's perceptions of the prompting role of religion and spirituality as a psychological factor contributing to their post-traumatic growth. Two themes emerged from this process, namely: source of empowerment and source of meaning, the psychological resources, which led to positive changes in their lives. Moreover, this study engendered interesting conceptualizations that demonstrated religious and spiritual coping as an influencing factor for posttraumatic growth.Keywords

This study investigates demographic variables that predict psychological distress among children of alcoholic fathers in Kerala, India. The Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K-10), a standardized psychological instrument developed for assessing psychological distress, was used in a survey. It consists of ten items with five-point Likert scale responses. For the study, a total of 57 subjects were employed. The descriptive approach, linear regression analysis, and correlation were used to test the acquired data. Results showed that four of the eight demographic variables assessed independently for their ability to predict psychological distress in children of alcoholic fathers were gender (β=.335), occupation (β=.282), economic status (β= -.296), and the number of years of the father's alcoholism (β=.313). The four factors account for 60% of the variance in scores; R2 =.607; F (9.285); p<.05. Additionally, the results demonstrate that although separately, demographic variables together predicted psychological distress (R2=.542, p<.05). These four demographic factors significantly predicted the psychological distress experienced by children of alcoholic fathers. Therefore, it is essential to design health policies that account for such issues. This will substantially reduce the psychological distress of children of alcoholic fathers' experience.Keywords
