Prayer works, researcher says

---

Omschrijving
David Hodge, an assistant professor of social work in the College of Human Services at the West campus, has conducted an exhaustive meta-analysis on the effects of intercessory prayer among people with psychological or medical problems. In other words, does God – or some other type of transcendent entity – answer prayer for healing? According to Hodge's study, “A Systematic Review of the Empirical Literature on Intercessory Prayer,” the answer is yes. “There have been a number of studies on intercessory prayer, or prayer offered for the benefit of another person,” says Hodge, a leading expert on spirituality and religion. “Some have found positive results for prayer. Others have found no effect. Conducting a meta-analysis takes into account the entire body of empirical research on intercessory prayer. Using this procedure, we find that prayer offered on behalf of another yields positive results.”
