Abstract

This study tests the hypothesis that higher levels of positive
religious affect are associated with higher levels of personal happiness
among a sample of 284 Hebrew-speaking female undergraduate students
who completed the Katz-Francis Scale of Attitude toward Judaism, the
Oxford Happiness Inventory, and the short-form Eysenck Personality
Questionnaire Revised. The data reported a small but statistically
significant association between religiosity and happiness after taking
individual differences in personality into account.
