Abstract: Although spiritual/religious strengths (SRS) are widely believed to be a protective factor for youth physical and mental wellness, scant evidence is available regarding how much and in what direction a person’s past adverse experiences can affect the said protection. The study aims to validate the overall protective effect of SRS on health and investigate the mutual effect modification of SRS and accumulated adverse experiences exposure.
