N2  - In the present investigation, increased levels of spiritual discontent religious coping were associated with increased nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) among study participants. Spiritual discontent religious coping is a negative religious coping style that involves beliefs about being abandoned and ignored by God or a higher power during times of stress. We examined the bivariate and multivariate relationships between NSSI and four types of spiritual/religious coping. While three types of spiritual/religious coping were associated with NSSI in bivariate correlation analyses, only one type of coping--spiritual discontent religious coping--was associated with NSSI in a hierarchical regression analysis. We discuss the research and mental health counseling implications of these findings.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
