چکیده:
The present study has qualitatively reviewed the association between religious orientation and mental health in educational setting. This research is a review study that has been done by reviewing about fifteen citations. In this paper, we review the religious orientation literature, with a focus on educational contexts. Searches of relevant databases and reference lists were used to source articles for this narrative review. Evidence regarding religious orientation variable associated with educational researches is discussed. In general, there are two internal and external dimensions in the discussion of religious orientation, and each of which determines how people interact with the world around them. People with an internal religious orientation are those in whom religiosity is the highest motivation and belief in God is the basis of their actions and behavior. They worship God not only out of a desire to achieve something, but their goal is to give thanks to God. People with an external religious orientation may use religion in different ways to achieve their personal goals. They either do not firmly believe in their religious beliefs or choose and shape them according to their needs. These people have a utilitarian approach and view religion as a meaningful source of social status. In other words, instead of giving themselves over to religious teachings, these people define religion in terms of their personality and needs. Further research to understand and expand the literature about association between religious orientation and mental health in educational context would be beneficial.
پژوهش حاضر به صورت کیفی و به منظور زمینه‌سازی تحقیقات مداخله‌ای و رابطه‌ای در علوم تربیتی، به بررسی چارچوب نظری و پیشینه عملی جهت گیری مذهبی پرداخته است. این پژوهش، یک مطالعه مروری است که با بررسی حدود یکصد و پنجاه منبع انجام شده است. تاکید این پژوهش بر روی منابعی بوده است که مستقیما و یا حداکثر با یک متغیر واسطه ای با ابعاد سلامت روان در امور تربیتی در ارتباط بوده است. به طور کلی دو بعد درونی و بیرونی در بحث جهت گیری مذهبی وجود دارد و هرکدام سازنده شخصیت فرد و تعیین کننده چگونگی تعامل وی با دنیای اطرافش است. افراد دارای جهت گیری مذهبی درونی، کسانی هستند که دینداری در آنها انگیزه برتر است و اعتقاد به خدا، زیربنای اعمال و رفتار آنها را تشکیل می دهد. آنها خدا را نه فقط از روی میل به کسب چیزی عبادت می کنند بلکه هدف آنها سپاس از خداست. اشخاص دارای جهت گیری مذهبی بیرونی ممکن است دین را به صورت مختلف برای رسیدن به اهداف شخصی خود به کار ببرند. اینان یا به عقاید دینی خود اعتقاد راسخ ندارند یا آنها را متناسب با نیازهای خود گزینش کرده و شکل می‌دهند. این افراد در متون و تعلیمات دینی خود اغلب دچار تفسیر به رای شده و دین و مذهب را اساسا آن طور که هست نپذیرفته اند. به عبارت ساده تر این افراد به جای آن که خود را در اختیار تعالیم دینی قرار دهند دین را در قالب شخصیت و نیازهای خود تعریف می‌کنند.

Keywords: Religious orientation, mental health, educational studies Introduction Despite the marginalization of religion by modernity, it remains an integral part of individual and social life (Anderson, 2015), and for many, religion is synonymous with “lifestyle” (Svensson et al.
Religion is a major factor in the lives of many people and the degree of religiosity and commitment to religious customs and teachings can be considered as one of the most important and influential factors on his mental health (Ma- linakova, Tavel, Meier, van Dijk, & Reijneveld, 2020).
In order to investigate the relationship between religious orientation and mental health symptoms among students, external religious ori- entation was the only significant predictor of hostility, anxiety and depression (Kuyel, Cesur, & Ellison, 2012).
Butt (2014)in a study explored the relationship among emotional intelligence, religious orientation and men- tal health of university students.
Hovey, Hurtado, Morales, and Seligman (2014) examined whether various dimensions of religion-based sup- port (social interaction, instrumental, and emotional) mediated the relationship between religiosity and men- tal health in college students in the Midwest United States.
Galek, Flannelly, Ellison, Silton, and Jankowski (2015) examined the relations among religious commitment, belief in meaning and purpose in life, and psychiatric symptoms among the overall public using data from the 2010 Baylor Religion Survey (BRS).
