In Doubt and Disbelief: How Mrdjenovich 2018 Misunderstands the (Non)Religion –Health Relationship

AbstractThe article, “Religiously/Spiritually Involved, but in Doubt or Disbelief—Why? Healthy?” (Mrdjenovich in J Relig Health.https://doi.org/10.1007/s10943-018-0711-2, 2018) addressed why subsets of Nones would engage in religious activities. While the subject matter of Mrdjenovich ’s work is important and understudied, several problematic conclusions about the nonreligion-health field were drawn. We provide constructive criticisms of Mrdjenovich’s methodologies, conclusions, and characterizations of the nonreligion-health field, and offer several solutions to the problems identified.
