Abstract
The aim of the present study was to understand the relationship between church attendance and well‐being among adolescents. Measures of well‐being included happiness and depressed mood. Results showed that adolescents frequently attending church were happier and less depressed than those adolescents who were not attending church frequently. Results are discussed in the light of the literature and suggestions for future research are made.
