Zusammenfassung:Despite AI women’s cancer disparities being a public health concern, a dearth of research on this populations’ spiritual coping poses a barrier to redressing such disparities. The purpose of this article was to explore AI women cancer survivors’ spiritual and religious coping. This qualitative descriptive study included a sample of 43 AI women cancer survivors. Qualitative content analysis revealed that 93% of AI women cancer survivors used a variety of AI spiritual coping, religious coping, and/or a mixture of the two. Results reveal the prevalence of AI spiritual coping, with traditional AI spiritual practices being particularly common.
