@Reg: Here’s ONE…and plenty more to come…how many do you want?

Khenfer, J., Roux, E., Tafani, E., & Laurin, K. (2017). When God’s (not) needed: Spotlight on how belief in divine control influences goal commitment. Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, 70117-123. Doi: 10.1016/j.jesp.2017.01.005

The conclusion was essentially, quoted from the conclusion: “Belief in divine control increased goal commitment when self-efficacy was low.”

I can certainly identify with this in my own life.
