“…This finding did not support the possibility that husbands and wives would show different dyadic roles of religion on social relationships and depressive symptoms, especially in the Korean context. This means that although there may be gender differences in religious status or the level of religious participation (Damianakis et al, 2020; Schnabel, 2018), there are no significant gender differences in the roles that religion has in the lives of individuals and couples among older Korean adults. In addition, unlike the results from the multi-level analysis, the multi-group path analysis indicated that religious participation did not have a significant association with depressive symptoms through marital satisfaction for both husbands and wives.…”

“…When it comes to religion in later life, it is also important to consider potential gender differences within the couple (Upenieks et al, 2022). Previous studies have revealed that women tend to have higher levels of religious beliefs and practices than men (Schnabel, 2018), particularly in later life (Damianakis et al, 2020). As wives’ religiosity was found to be more important than husbands’ for marital quality (Sabey et al, 2014) and marital stability (Brown et al, 2008), wives’ religious participation may be more closely tied to their marital relationships than husbands’ (Hwang et al, 2019).…”

“…Positive effects may be apparent during personal crises such as illness, retirement, and other life-altering events. Faith can protect the relationship from the negative consequences of health problems; for example, while caring for a family member with dementia, religious beliefs can protect caregivers from deteriorating health (DAMIANAKIS et al 2018).…”

“…On the whole, women tend to have higher levels of religious beliefs and practices than men (Schnabel, 2018), a difference that appears most pronounced in later life (Damianakis et al, 2020). Specific to the health domain, women tend to more strongly internalize the notion that the body is a “sacred” instrument that is best used for service to God compared to men (Homan & Boyatzis, 2010; Mahoney & Tarakeshwar, 2005).…”

“…However, none of these past studies were specific to later life couples. Prior research is clear that women from older cohorts tend to be more religious than their husbands, even more so than in younger cohorts (Damianakis et al, 2020; Yorgason, 2015). Gallup (2002:1) noted that older cohorts of women, “hold their beliefs more firmly, practice their faith more consistently, and work more vigorously for their congregation.” 1…”
