Zusammenfassung	The Religious Commitment Inventory-10 (RCI-10), developed by Worthington and colleagues in 2003, is a brief 10-item self-report measure of religious commitment: the degree to which an individual dedicates themselves to religious beliefs, practices, and community. The RCI-10 distinguishes between two dimensions of commitment: Intrapersonal (personal faith conviction, spiritual discipline, religious significance) and Interpersonal (engagement with faith community, public religious identity, shared practices). It has become widely used in counseling psychology, pastoral care, and research on religiosity and well-being to assess the strength and breadth of religious dedication.	The Brief RCOPE, developed by Pargament and colleagues (1998), is a 14-item measure that distinguishes between positive and negative religious coping strategies that individuals employ when facing major life stressors. Derived from the longer 105-item RCOPE, the Brief RCOPE captures how people use faith, prayer, spiritual reframing, and community support to manage illness, loss, and adversity, while also identifying religiously-based distress responses (e.g., spiritual anger, perception of abandonment by God). It has become a standard measure in health psychology, particularly in research on coping with serious illness, grief, and trauma.
