Riassunto	There are a number of ways that scholars have posited how religious practice can influence people's reaction to stress. The purpose of the present study was to examine how religiosity relates to healthrelated quality of life (HRQOL) using BMI status as a stressor. We fit and compared the five common analytic models used to explain how religious practice can influence people's reaction to stress. The distress-deterrent model demonstrated the best overall fit. BMI status and religiosity had independent (and opposite) influences on emotional, social, and work/school domains of the PedsQL™ Young Adult Scales. Higher BMI values were associated with poorer perceived physical, emotional, social, and school/work functioning, while higher religiosity values were associated with better functioning in the emotional, social, and work/school domains. This was true even after controlling for the demographic variables. Our findings have implications for future research investigating the relations beteween religiosity, HRQOL, and BMI status.
