The emergence of psychology of religion is simultaneous with the emergence of psychology since the pioneers of psychology like Wundt, James, Watson, Freud, and, Maslow have included the religious beliefs in their studies. Up to now, numerous studies in the field of psychology of religion have shed light on the effects of belief or disbelief to a higher being on psychological elements such as emotions, thoughts, behaviors, attitudes, personality, identity, and coping strategies. Religious psychology has an important place in psychology of religion studies such as Buddhist psychology, Christian psychology, and Islamic psychology.
