Â AbstractÂ The present study examined the predictive effect of religious dimensions and religious doubt on psychological distress in emerging adult males and females. Participants included 637 (440 females) individuals from a religiously affiliated, Midwestern university. Data were collected online, and 66% of participants received extra credit for participating. Respondents completed the Personal Religious Inventory to assess their self-report of dimensions of religion; a single-item measure of religious doubt to understand the degree of certainty or doubt about their religious beliefs; and the Langner Symptom Survey to assess the severity of reported psychological distress. Results indicated that dimensions of religion and religious doubt significantly predicted psychological distress only in emerging adult females.
