“…The findings of meta-analysis underscore the vital role of religious coping in psychological adjustment to stress (Ano and Vasconcelles 2005 ). Previous studies have demonstrated that positive religious coping is positively related to psychological well-being (Lewis et al 2005 ), psychological, physical, and spiritual adjustments (Pargament et al 2004 ), and externalizing behaviours (French et al 2020 ). Negative religious coping was found to be related to poor quality of life such as worse physical functioning, role physical, vitality, social functioning, and mental health over and above the sociodemographic, clinical, and anxiety and depression factors (Taheri-Kharameh et al 2016 ).…”

“…Furthermore, higher use of religious and spiritual beliefs during the COVID-19 pandemic was related to better mental health outcomes including hope and spiritual growth (Lucchetti et al 2020 ). There is also a close link between religious coping strategies and loneliness, for example, in a recent study, positive religious coping was found to be negatively associated with loneliness both concurrently and longitudinally (French et al 2020 ). Another study reported significant effects of religious coping on loneliness and depression (Warner et al 2019 ).…”

“…Our study identified two factors that may benefit student mental health during the pandemic. Strong family relationships and religiosity are two social and cultural features of Indonesian university students that also reflect those of the wider Indonesian society (French et al, 2020;Purwono et al, 2019). We hypothesised that these two key characteristics might help to mitigate mental health issues among university students during the pandemic.…”

“…Strong family relationships and religiosity are two social and cultural characteristics of Indonesian university students, which are also reflected in Indonesian society at large (French et al, 2020;Purwono et al, 2019). Indonesians are very family-oriented, meaning that family relationships are very close, and characterised by mutual love and an obligation to take care of each other.…”

Deteriorating mental health among university students during the COVID-19 pandemic is a serious worldwide public health concern. This study aims to examine the linkage between social media addiction and mental health of university students in Indonesia and to address whether family relationship and religiosity may mitigate the harmful effects of social media on the mental health of students at this time. We collected data from 709 students at universities across the country between June 3 and June 20, 2020. Mental health was measured using 10 items validated by the Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression (CES-D) scale. We found that students with higher social media addiction scores had a greater likelihood of experiencing mild depression (OR 1.07, CI: 1.02-1.12). Students who had good relationships with their parents and were more religious showed better mental health than those who had poor relationships with their parents and were less religious. This study suggests the need to mitigate university students' mental health risks through reducing social media addiction while encouraging family relationships and religiosity during the pandemic. Keywords Mental health . Social media addiction . University students . COVID-19 pandemic . Indonesia Studies have convincingly documented that social media addiction is common among university and college students and that this addiction is harmful to their mental health (

“…We chose Indonesia as the location for our research as religious belief is fairly high amongst its population (French et al , 2020). Many Indonesians’ organisational values and cultures adopt and adapt to beliefs and religion (French et al , 2008; Purwono et al , 2019).…”

Purpose Even though many studies have been conducted in exploring the determinants of job stress, limited research has been conducted in exploring how the internal factors of religious orientation and the relatively new variable in the field of psychology, psychological capital (PsyCap), may relate to job stress. This study aims to examine the influence of PsyCap as a mediating variable on the relationship between religious orientation and job stress. Design/methodology/approach This study used self-administered surveys. Data was collected through the completion of online questionnaires. The participants include 208 accountants and business practitioners in Indonesia. Data were analysed using structural equation model-partial least squares. Findings The results show that intrinsic (extrinsic) religious orientation is negatively (positively) related to job stress and positively (negatively) related to PsyCap. Additionally, PsyCap mediates the relationship between religious orientation (intrinsic and extrinsic) and job stress. Other results indicate a positive relationship between PsyCap and job stress. Research limitations/implications Firstly, the sample used comes from various professions in companies or agencies that function differently. Secondly, this study asks individuals to assess their own job stress, which increases the chance of bias. Practical implications The findings of this study will provide a recommendation to the company, particularly the human resources division, to consider candidates’ religious orientation and PsyCap levels during the recruitment process. Thus, the company may observe the employees or individuals who can effectively manage job stress. Originality/value This study provides new empirical evidence regarding the relationship between religious orientation, PsyCap and job stress. It shows that the individual’s religious orientation (intrinsic and extrinsic) affects their level of PsyCap (higher and lower), which is a determinant factor in the experience of job stress.
