RosaryHabiT Survey: January 2026

A 2021 German medical study found that regularly praying the Rosary was associated with positive religious and well-being outcomes, including peace, life orientation, contemplative connection with the Divine, and reduced stress and anxiety.

However, the study’s ten-person sample raised questions about how widespread these experiences are. To address this, a 23-question survey based on the original study’s statements was administered by RosaryHabit, asking participants to agree, disagree, or express no opinion. 

Responses closely mirrored the German study’s findings, with several statements receiving 90% or higher positive agreement. With a sample size of 385, the results provide 95% confidence within a 5% margin of error for populations of 3,000,000 or more, suggesting these positive experiences are likely common among those who regularly pray the Rosary.
