This paper investigates the relationship between religious attendance and subjective well-being in an Eastern-culture country. The findings of this study indicate that religious attendance has positive relationships with happiness as well as domain satisfactions with interpersonal relationship, health, and marital life, but it is not significantly related to the satisfaction with personal financial status. Interestingly, for believers of Eastern religions, those who have a higher level of relative income tend to have higher levels of satisfaction with financial status and health status, but are less satisfied with being free of worry and interpersonal relationship. Moreover, for the adherents of Eastern religions, those who have a higher educational attainment appear to report lower levels of overall happiness and the satisfaction with being free of worry. It appears that the differences in the religious practices and organizational settings between Eastern religions and Western Christianity lead to different patterns of the relationships between religious attendance and various measures of subjective well-being. urn:nbn:de:hebis:04-0004-2009-111-34650 Gesundheit 2009 English Universitätsbibliothek Marburg Publikationsserver der Universitätsbibliothek Marburg attendance 2015-04-28 application/pdf Vol 14 No 1 (2009) https://journals.uni-marburg.de/0004/2009/111/cover.png urn:nbn:de:hebis:04-0004-2009-1112 https://doi.org/10.17192/mjr.2009.14.1 PeriodicalPart 2009 1 14 https://journals.uni-marburg.de/0004/cover.png Institute for Comparative Cultural Research - Study of Religions and Anthropology Religion Philosophy and theory of religion 1996 1418722-x Periodical urn:nbn:de:hebis:04-00048 Marburg Journal of Religion 1612-2941 Fachbereich Gesellschaftswissenschaften und Philosophie Deutschhausstraße 9, 35037 Marburg Marburg Philipps-Universität Marburg 2009-04-28 Teilnahme Religious Attendance and subjective Well-being in an Eastern-Culture Country: Empirical Evidence from Taiwan eastern culture https://journals.uni-marburg.de/0004/2009/111/3465/3465.png Wen-Chun Chang Chang, Wen-Chun https://doi.org/10.17192/mjr.2009.14.3465 article Glück well-being 2017-12-14 Wohlergehen health östliche Kultur happiness 2015-04-28
