Use of a Medical Facility by Christian Scientists

Authors: ARTHUR E. NUDELMAN PhD

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Our study, unique in its use of medical records as well as self-report data, was conducted to ascertain the extent to which Christian Scientists used a medical facility and whether or not such use was related to the experience of psychologic stress. Their use of medical facilities was found to be low, and it was positively related to stress.
