Correlation Between Religious Coping and Elderly Psychological Well-Being in Empty Nester in Banyumas Subdistrict

 ABSTRACT  

Empty nest syndrome is one of the psychological challenges experienced by older adults. One strategy to maintain and improve the psychological well-being of empty nesters is the use of religious coping, which involves dealing with stressors through religious or spiritual aspects.  Research Objective: This study aims to examine the correlation between religious coping and psychological well-being among empty nester elderly in the Banyumas Subdistrict.  Methods: This quantitative research employed an analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. A total sampling technique was used to recruit 102 respondents from October 2024 to January 2025. Measurements were conducted using the Psychological Well-Being Scale and the Brief RCOPE BI instrument. Data analysis was performed using Spearman’s rho correlation test.  Results: Elderly empty nesters tended to use positive religious coping, with a median score of 21.00 (range: 12–21), which was higher than the median score of negative religious coping, which was 0.00 (range: 0–7). The median psychological well-being score was 67.0, with a minimum score of 50 and a maximum score of 76.0, indicating a high level of psychological well-being, as the scores were close to the maximum possible value. The study revealed a significant correlation between religious coping and psychological well-being in elderly empty nesters (p = 0.0001), with a moderate correlation for the positive religious coping subscale (r = 0.484) and a negative correlation for the negative religious coping subscale (r = -0.382).  Discussion: The psychological well-being of most elderly empty nesters was found to be high, particularly in the dimensions of environmental mastery and self-acceptance. The religious coping strategies used by the elderly predominantly reflected positive religious coping.  Conclusion: There is a significant correlation between religious coping and psychological well-being in elderly empty nesters, with a positive correlation for positive religious coping and a negative correlation for negative religious coping. Older adults need to be prepared in terms of environmental mastery, self-acceptance, and the application of religious coping strategies to enhance their psychological well-being in later life.
