Abstract

The aim of the current research is to examine the relationship between the dimensions of religiosity and resilience with the mediation of hope and coping styles. For this purpose, questionnaires were sent to a number of Persian-speaking users of social networks (such as Rubika, WhatsApp, and Telegram). 202 people filled out the questionnaire booklet which included: 1) Religiosity Scale; 20 Resiliency Scale; 3) Hope Scale; and 4) Coping Styles Scale. Results showed that a positive relationship between religiosity and resilience, a positive relationship between resilience and hope, as well as a positive relationship between resilience and coping styles. The mediating role of hope between religiosity and resiliency was confirmed. But the alternative path that is the mediating role of coping styles between resiliency and religiosity was not confirmed. We came to the conclusion that there is a relationship between religiosity and resilience only through hope showing that only the religiosity that results from hope or exists in hope causes resilience.
