A new study by researchers at the University of Otago has found a link between anxiety and religious belief.
The study, which was published in
The International Journal for the Psychology of Religion, had almost 1000 participants complete a recall test to see if people who were anxious or non-anxious had a better memory of supernatural agents.
Lead author Dr Thomas Swan, of the Department of Psychology, said they found people who feel anxious were more likely to remember beings with supernatural abilities, such as gods, than beings without. ....

Kiwi study finds anxious people more likely to remember religious ideas


The researchers also looked into the comfort theory that belief provides comfort to anxious people. 
Dr Swan said he believes there are several issues with the theory - such as why there are gods who punish people, along with hellish afterlives - and he believes the theory fails to address the issue of how someone who is feeling anxious becomes a believer. 
Our research suggests comfort theory has it somewhat backwards: anxious people are attracted, at least initially, to the scary traits of gods, which may explain why so many gods have scary features. Comfort, we suspect, comes later when some people transform their view of the god into something more palatable that they are happier believing. ....

Otago study helps explain how religious beliefs are formed

Feeling anxious can direct our attention and memory toward supernatural beings such as gods, a University of Otago study has found.
Lead author Dr Thomas Swan, of the Department of Psychology, says the research may help explain how religious beliefs are formed.
For the study, published in the
International Journal for the Psychology of Religion, 972 participants completed an online recall test to determine if a bias to recall supernatural agents was stronger in anxious people, rather than non-anxious people.
Those who felt anxious were more likely to remember beings with supernatural abilities than beings without.
Anxiety is an emotion that evolved to make us pay greater attention to potential threats, so when we feel anxious, a god that can read our thoughts and punish us for them, or flood the Earth, is going to be memorable, he says. ....
